Hello, [respondent name], my name is __________ and I am from the Puerto Rico Department of Health OR the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
I am calling you because I am partnering with WIC to evaluate different services that have been offered to pregnant women in order to help them protect themselves and their babies from Zika. Would you be willing to talk with me for a few minutes (less than 20 minutes) about what you are doing and what offers of assistance you might have received in the past few months? It will help us know whether we can do a better job of helping you.
No
Yes, [If yes, are you over 18 years of age]
Are you currently pregnant?
No (end call)
Yes (continue)
Introduction for Interview
Great! Thank you for your willingness to share your opinions with me. Your opinions will help us improve the types of services we can offer pregnant women, like yourself. I have just a few questions that will take less than 20 minutes. If we get disconnected, I will call you back.
Before I begin I want to go over a couple of items:
This interview is voluntary. You can decline to answer any question and you can end our conversation at any time
There are no right or wrong answers. I am interested in your opinion. If you don’t understand the question, feel free to let me know and I can ask it another way. This is not a test, so feel free to say you don’t know or don’t have an opinion to offer and “I don’t know“ is a perfectly acceptable response to any question I ask you.
Public reporting burden of this collection of information is estimated to average 20 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden to CDC/ATSDR Information Collection Review Office, 1600 Clifton Road NE, MS D-74, Atlanta, Georgia 30333; ATTN: PRA (0920-xxxx).
The information you provide today will not be shared with anyone except those involved in this project. It’s important to know that the questions I’m about to ask you will not affect your eligibility for WIC services in any way. Our reports will include the responses of ALL the women who talk with us so that you can provide honest answers without worrying that your answers will hurt you in any way. Your answers cannot be linked back to you.
