NASGP chair to join industry panel on workforce crisis

Dr Richard Fieldhouse will join Pulse editor Jaimie Kaffash, GPC deputy Dr Samira Anane, Doctors’ Association UK GP spokesperson Dr Steve Taylor, and NHS Confederation primary care network chair Professor Aruna Garcea at a panel next month.

‘Are unemployed GPs collateral damage of the NHS’s big plans?’ will take place at a free event, Pulse LIVE, in London on 18 March.

Tickets are available for free online.

Dr Fieldhouse, NASGP chair, will also attend both days of the event offering advice at an NASGP stand.

Dr Fieldhouse said: “This is our second year attending these popular Pulse Live events, and I really enjoy the dozens of conversations I have with a wide range of colleagues, from GPs in training, through to GP partners, practice managers and career GP locums.

“I’m also looking forward to being on the panel discussion with such eminent colleagues, especially talking to this topic which has brought so much existential angst to our close colleagues and the broader public.”

"I really like LocumDeck. Before, I was doing everything myself. It was a nightmare! Keeping a record of who has paid, chasing them – with LocumDeck, all that goes away. All you have to do is just book your sessions and work.

Doing remote sessions through LocumDeck has also been a very nice experience. The practices assign the patients very thoughtfully, considering the limitation of remote consultation, and I have developed a very good working relationships with them."
