Written question asked by Paul Blomfield (Labour) on Friday, 22 March 2024, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Tuesday, 26 March 2024. It was answered by Andrew Stephenson (Conservative) on Wednesday, 3 April 2024 on behalf of the Department of Health and Social Care.
Respiratory Diseases: Health Services
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the Answer of 7 December 2023 to Question 4959 on Respiratory Diseases: Health Services, how many Acute Respiratory Infection hubs were operating in winter 2023/24.
- Answer
-
During winter 2022/23, 363 Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) hubs were implemented by integrated care systems (ICSs). The Department does not hold recorded information on the number of ARI hubs in 2023/24, as this information is held instead by local health bodies. The ambition in the recovery plan for urgent and emergency care is that each local area that would benefit from an ARI hub, has one in place ahead of winter. Evaluations from NHS England suggest that ARI hubs may save general practitioner appointments and accident and emergency attendances.
