they will be asked to work 18 hrs on, 4 hrs off
Do they have only have 22 hour days in Brum ?
My wife's hospital has offered to put staff up in hotels too, they're also prepping that the big wave is on it's way, probably within about a week (Edit: in France, not UK).

be put up somewhere rather than go home.
Health workers in Luxembourg are doing that if they don't live near their workplaces. Interestingly the government extends the hotel accommodation offer to their families (if they have one) so that as long as they're testing negative they can "decompress" by spending a bit of time with their loved ones.

Just had a chat with a mate in Brum. His wife is a consultant in the NHS, he's at home in quite long-term ill-health and classified as vulnerable. His wife is getting 3 briefings a day, and the latest is that if things go as they expect, they will be asked to work 18 hrs on, 4 hrs off and be put up somewhere rather than go home.
