Hybrid simulation modelling of networks of heterogeneous care homes and the inter-facility spread of Covid-19 by sharing staff

Fig 5

Impact of staffing shortage verse use of bank/agency staff on the risk of outbreak.

The plots illustrate the risk of outbreak occurrence across care homes within 90 days. A–in various levels of staff shortage. No bank/agency staff is used to cover the vacant positions. B–in various usage levels of bank/agency staff. Bank/agency staff have 80% compliance to weekly PCR testing (α = 0.5). The risk of outbreak occurrence (point) is the proportion of simulations where outbreaks occur in 1,000 simulations for each scenario. Line range denotes the 95% CI of this outcome.
