Respiratory Hub Appointments Now Available to Support Patients This Winter

Posted by: philippa - Posted on:

To help manage the increase in coughs, colds, and respiratory infections over the winter months — and to reduce pressure on emergency services — new Respiratory Care Hubs are now open across the area.

These hubs provide same-day, face-to-face appointments for adults and children who are experiencing new or worsening respiratory symptoms such as coughing, wheezing, or shortness of breath.

The aim is to make sure patients can receive quick, appropriate care for acute respiratory infections within the community — helping to ease demand on A&E departments, ambulance services, and GP practices.

If you’re feeling unwell with a recent chest or breathing problem, you can book an appointment at your nearest Respiratory Hub by calling your GP practice.

Respiratory Hub Locations (Monday–Friday):

  • Peel GPs
  • Uplands Medical Centre
  • Woodbank Surgery
  • Prestwich Health Centre

Opening Hours:
Monday to Friday — times vary between 9:00am and 6:00pm

These hubs are designed to make it easier for patients to get the right help, in the right place, at the right time — keeping our community safe and well this winter.

👉 If you or your child develop new breathing symptoms, contact your GP practice to book a Respiratory Hub appointment.
