NOTE. HCP, healthcare personnel; LIP, licensed independent practitioner; RR, rate ratio— percent of hospitals with 101–300 or >300 beds reporting the major barrier divided by the percent of hospitals with ≤100 beds reporting major barrier.
Reference group is ≤100 beds.
Using the Marascuilo test, significant differences were found in the proportion of responding facilities for all pair-wise comparisons between:
All HCP categories except LIPs compared with adult students.
Employees compared with LIPs or students.
All HCP categories except employees compared with adult volunteers and LIPs compared with adult students.
All HCP categories except employees compared with adult students.
All HCP categories except employees compared with LIPs or students and LIPs compared with adult students.
