Acute Respiratory infection activity📈(bacterial, viral-COVID/Flu/RSV).
ARI hubs helped the NHS cope last winter increasing access to same day appointments, supporting A&E & primary care.
Consider setting these up now.

We have written a joint letter with @RCPLondon and @acutemedicine to Trust leaders about "Improving medical pathways for acute care". We must work together to improve UEC pathways by expanding same day emergency care (SDEC) and prioritising patient flow.
