Job responsibilities

As a salaried GP your duties will include:

Providing medical services to patients at Driffield and upon occasions as demand requires, at Nafferton branch surgery.

The practice operates a total triage system. The triage is done by the duty GP. The full duty day runs from 7.45 am until 6.30 pm and is rotated between GPs, partners do a larger share of the duty sessions but you will be required to do some duty sessions as part of your role as needed. For salaried GPs the duty day will be classed as 3 clinical sessions.

We currently dont ask our salaried GPs to participate in our Monday extended hours sessions but reserve the right to do so if circumstances necessitate.

Surgeries - these will consist of a mixture of face to face and telephone appointments that have previously been triaged by the triage GP.

Dealing with paperwork, correspondence and test results associated with patient care.

Ensuring the safe handover of patient care at the end of the day when urgent needs required.

For the purpose of patient care and the Quality & Outcomes Framework, maintain accurate records electronically within agreed Practice procedures.

The practitioner is also required to participate in and operate clinical governance methods and systems approved by the Partnership or by NHS East Riding of Yorkshire, e.g. medical audit or quality assurance initiatives.

Adherence to the GMCs Good Medical Practice guidance and requirements for GP appraisal and revalidation.

Liaising with other members of the Primary Care Health Team and other agencies as appropriate, to ensure good relationships are maintained at all times with patients, colleagues and other agencies.

Carrying out work considered outside the NHS, such as medical examinations, certificates and reports etc where the income is retained by the employer. All fees received by you, by virtue of your position in the practice, shall be paid to the Practice.

Maintaining a high standard of care to patients by showing a commitment to continuing professional development and by participation in practice, clinical and training meetings.

Medication queries in relation to your own patients but not day to day Dispensary business issues. Ensuring that medication reviews for your patient list are completed in a timely manner.

Work within practice policies on prescribing, referral and other general clinical issues, which the Practice as a whole will from time to time agree.

Carrying out other duties, both clinical and administrative, as are commensurate with the position.

Practice Meetings are held on Friday, currently 1 per month, and you are invited to attend.

Additional sessions The practice may agree with the practitioner that he or she should undertake work which is not specified in this Job Plan, by way of additional nominal sessions or fractions thereof. The extra session(s) shall be remunerated on a pro rata basis.

You will be allocated a fair share of named patients, based on clinical sessions worked, and will be in charge of the coordination of their care.

You will be expected to do home visits as required.
