Same-day urgent respiratory care in the community - a breath of fresh air?

This episode of the Transforming Primary Care podcast, chaired by Liz Spice head of primary care in the cross-sector area in the North East and Yorkshire region, covers the development of Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) hubs in our local communities, their importance during periods of high demand and the considerations involved when setting them up. The panel including Dr Cath Monaghan, Medical Director of the North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board, also explores the role of ARI hubs in the NHS response to winter, their impacts in previous winters and how they align with the key shift from hospital to community outlined within the 10-year plan. With neighbourhood health being firmly on the horizon, what can we learn from those who have been pioneering respiratory care closer to home?
