Our colleagues at the Strategy Unit have developed a capacity model to help people planning and running COVID-19 vaccine clinics to ease the flow of patients, reduce queueing and make the best use of facilities and staff for maximum effect.
Using modelling is a fast and cheap option for spotting problems and allows you to prevent them and plan ahead. The model is free for use by anyone and can help the design and operation of clinics.
This work stemmed from the Strategy Unit’s collaboration with the Wolverhampton Prevention and Population Health Unit team to aid in their advice on planning vaccine centres in Wolverhampton.
