Pennine GP Alliance (PGPA) are funding the expansion of our Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) Hubs across Calderdale to support our GP practices and patients in Calderdale. The expansion is an increase from three to five ARI hubs across Calderdale.
PGPA staff have been working at pace to mobilise two new hubs which will mean all five Primary Care Networks have a hub for patients in their area, providing additional capacity to GP practices and further support for patients.
The two additional hub service are now effective as of Monday, 18th December this week.
Patients will be referred by their doctor for appointments which will be managed by PGPA.
We look forward to updating you further in the New Year on the impact of the Hubs on managing respiratory infections for patients across Calderdale.
