Staffing capacity at B.C. primary care facilities

A bar chart showing the percentage of actual full-time equivalent staff at B.C.'s urgent and primary care centres. On average, the figure in B.C. is 53 per cent, meaning a little over half of the allotted staff are available to serve patients. In Fraser Health and Interior Health, the value is 62 per cent. It is slightly lower in Vancouver Coastal Health at 55 per cent. In the Northern Health region, less than half of allotted staff work at UPCCs - the region has 49 per cent of actual full-time equivalent staff. But on Vancouver Island, the disparity is greatest with 39 per cent of the allotted staff on shift.
