newspaper mockup The NHS prepares for winter: Reducing hospital stay times | ITV News

Staff at one of the North East's hospitals are spearheading a campaign to reduce the time that patients need to stay. The aim is to cut unnecessarily long stays by speeding up treatment which takes them closer to going home.

The benefits include cutting the risk of complications which can arise from long periods in hospital, as well as freeing up beds for new patients.

The scheme is known as There's No Bed Like Home - which is up and running in Sunderland.
