Model Structure. Panel A depicts the model structure including all service and acuity allocation boxes, and units for each acuity and allocation combination containing single-occupancy (single box, one bed) and double-occupancy (double box, two beds) rooms. Panel B shows one of the six service/acuity allocation boxes (General Care, Medical). Panel C shows a subset of three rooms (one private and two semi private) with a total of five inpatient beds occupied with patients of various gender and flag status requirements. The first semi private room (C1) contains two female patients with no flag for either MRSA or VRE. The second semi-private room (C2) contains a single male patient flagged for MRSA or VRE and a closed bed. The private room (C3) contains a single female patient with a flag for MRSA or VRE.
