How can a predictive model help target interventions for nursing homes?
In nursing homes, the impact of COVID-19 has been particularly significant due to the age of the residents and the high proportion of those with pre-existing conditions that are likely to exacerbate the most severe symptoms of COVID-19. In this brief white paper, Abt explains how our predictive model can determine which nursing homes are at risk, with 91 percent accuracy. Powered by data science and artificial intelligence, this tool can help ensure that nursing homes have the resources and training needed to prevent the introduction of the virus into their facilities and, if necessary, are prepared to effectively intervene to avoid the spread of the virus within the facility.
