SHIELD SURVEY (ENGLISH)



INTRO.NOTE

Interviewer-Administered (IA) Introduction


Interviewer Note: please READ: Thank you for your interest in this health survey. Remember that all the information you provide will be kept private and this will not have any personal information linked to it, like your name, where you live, or your birthdate. Some questions I ask might be personal. You might want to participate in a safe and private location where other people cannot overhear our conversation.

 

First, I will ask you a few questions about yourself to confirm that you qualify for this health survey. Once this process is complete and you are confirmed to be eligible, we will move on to the survey.


For this survey, I will need to read all questions as worded so everyone in the study is asked the same questions. There are also several questions in this survey where I’ll ask you to look at response cards that list answer choices.


The person at the health department might have told you where to find the response cards. If not, I can give you the link to access the response cards.


Do you have access to the internet?

[If they say no or they can’t access the response cards, the interviewer will need to read the responses for each question]


After you’ve read the choices on the card, you can tell me your answer or, if you’d prefer, you can tell me the number next to the answer you choose.


At the end of the survey, you will have an opportunity to hear about referrals to programs and services in your area.”
