Reliability of r = 0.613. Regression analyses are carried out with the different variables, and ANOVA tests.

RESULTS:

Percentages of deaths by COVID-19 in Nursing homes, between 40% and 88%, of the total of (p < 0.001, X2 = 0.975). A relationship is established between the number of deaths from COVID-19 in Nursing homes, and the higher number of private Nursing homes (p < 0.001, X2 = 0.633). The larger the size of the Nursing home, the more deaths by COVID-19 were recorded (p < 0.001, X2 = 0.787), with private Nursing homes having +100 places, and public Nursing homes having +100 places (p < 0.001, X2 = 0.808).

CONCLUSIONS:

It was detected that the model of Nursing home best prepared to face the COVID-19 public Nursing homes with less than 25 places.
