🌟 Spotlight Award Success! 🌟

A collaborative initiative led by health and care partners across the system has received a Spotlight Award for reducing unnecessary Emergency Department attendances from care and nursing homes.

Since launching in April 2025, the programme has delivered impressive results, including a 50% reduction in conveyances in December 2025 compared to December 2024, and an incredible four consecutive months with zero acute admissions from care homes.

Through partnership working, shared learning, staff education and improved community pathways, more residents are receiving the right care, at the right time, in the right place, helping people stay safely at home whenever possible.

Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) hubs re-launching across Tees Valley for Winter 2026/27

What does this mean?

This is a service put on each winter at Redcar Primary care hospital to help GP surgeries cope with the demand put on services by Winter infections.

Any resident within the Tees Valley aged 3 months or older with acute respiratory symptoms, most likely due to infection e.g., bacterial or viral infections including COVID-19, RSV, influenza, Strep-A, who have been identified by their own GP practice as requiring face-to-face assessment but not as requiring hospitalisation is eligible.

So, if you submit a consultation about a chest infection or sore throat then we may book you at Redcar Primary care hospital to be seen the same day.

You will be seen by a qualified health care professional and if you need treatment after assessment you will be given it in the same manner as if you had been seen at the surgery.
