  1. Facility-level characteristics were expressed as mean (standard deviation) or as weighted percentages. A negative percentage reduction in hospitalization represents an increase in hospitalizations. Baseline data was collected retrospectively during the first wave. For the follow-up survey, facilities reported information on hospitalizations in July 2022 and information on the number, injuries, and displacement of staff at the time of the study (August-September 2022)
