  21. The data supplied is from GEM and this is global data. Our own data suggests a higher swing of activity from our local acute Trust to Corby Urgent Care Centre. • Up to 2013 both Kettering General Hospital and Northampton General Hospital (our 2 local area hospitals), have had a mirrored increase in activity. As can be seen by the following slide. • In 2013 Kettering General Hospital had a reduction in acute admissions of over 8,000. Whereas Northampton General Hospital has seen an increase of 6,000. • Therefore suggesting an overall reduction at Kettering by 14,000. • KGH data should be looked at as a whole because of the way they use A&E as a gateway for emergency admissions. • We cannot be 100% sure but we believe the swing is due to the opening of the Urgent Care Centre near to Kettering General Hospital.
