Facilitators to providing effective scabies management

Key themes Subthemes	Comments from participants
WaSH facilities	‘People have access to showers… clothes had to be washed in the washing machines… everything else was taken out and burnt. That was the protocol… we didn’t have outbreaks.’ (P7)
Social
Language facilitators	‘We had our own translator who spoke several languages, and there were people who lived in the camp, working or volunteering as translators.’ (P1)
Education	‘If you educate the patient very well, make them understand very well what’s going on, and what needs to be done… They understand, and they start to even manage to recognise their friends.’ (P2)
Treatment incentive	‘When they found out we would give them another set of clothes and we would buy underwear for them, some more people were interested as they had an incentive to take part.’ (P8)
Coordination of organisations	‘We give them a cream 24 hours before and then asked them to get showers, and then we put the creams again. So we partner with shower teams, and also, we partner with people from the distribution team so we could get them new fresh clothes.’ (P2)
