Results: Out of the 481 eligible samples, 441 participants agreed to participate giving a response rate of 91.7%. Around three quarter of the respondents was female. The median age was 31 years old. Majority of the respondents occupation were nurses or midwives (37.9%) followed by Health and Environmental Officer or Assistant Health and Environmental Officer (18.4%).
