GP - Salaried

Job summary

We have an exciting opportunity for a dynamic, approachable and friendly GP to join our "Outstanding" multidisciplinary team. We pride ourselves in providing quality, safe and responsive patient care that we would be happy for our families to receive.

Providing GMS services for the rural town of Bourne, Lincolnshire we are a dispensing practice with 16,000 patients. We have a large, expansive team with a GP to patient ratio of 1800 patients per WTE (8 sessions) equivalent. You will be supported by our in house ANPs, MSK FCPs, CPs, Social Prescribers, Health & Wellbeing team (including welfare counsellors), CPN, Pharmacy Techs, Specialist Neighbourhood Nurses and our brilliant team of PNs (many of who are independent prescribers) and HCAs. All with same day appointments.

We are passionate about our service and the care we provide. Everyone is encourage to contribute to these values making our Practice a fantastic place to work with a sustainable work life balance.

We have a smart and well established call/recall system using our clinical system to diarise events ensuring safety netting is in place. These processes are supported by our clinical audit team who ensure that reviews take place at their due date and our patients are kept safe.

Main duties of the job

We are looking for a new GP to cover 6 sessions per week but would be happy to discuss the option of 4-8 sessions per week.

We provide core GMS services.

GP access is via our total triage system using Accurx. Operating as a total triage practice since 2014 our patients benefit from same day access. This means that you are not asked to see multiple problems or spend time explaining why patients have had to wait to be seen.

A normal day consists of 24 patient contacts for both face to face or telephone appointments all set at 15 minutes. Clinical admin is kept to a minimum by our workflow and medicines management teams, resulting in GPs routinely receiving no more than 5-7 letters daily.

There are minimal home visits which are shared throughout the team.

Offering the full range of Enhanced Services we also have a number of additional contracted services such as Community Surgery in our L3 Operating Suite. We therefore encourage and support the development of specialist interest to diversify the weekly routine.
