FAQ: What is a Spip ‘Internal department, service or policy’?
As of July 2024, NASGP’s Spip resource has been archived. In the event that we update and restore Spip, we will update the website with new information.
Internal department, service or policy is one of the four different types of Cudos item.
- is always part of an Organisation e.g. diabetic clinic within a GP surgery, ENT unit within a hospital or community podiatry service as part of a community trust.
- shares a postal address with their parent Organisation.
- can also be a pathway of policy within an Organisation e.g. complaints procedure or a care pathway.
"I fell into a salaried role post-CCT, so faced with an unexpected relocation to a completely new area of the country the thought of GP locuming was incredibly daunting.
The assistance I have received from NASGP has been invaluable. I have received excellent and patient admin support when setting up my LocumDeck account. I have enjoyed the monthly chambers meetings I have attended: this made locuming feel far less isolating.
I have easily found plentiful work and am grateful for the invoicing and pension forms being taken care of – this gives me time to focus on the clinical work or make the most of precious days off.
With the support of NASGP Locum Chambers I have filled my diary working in a variety of practices in my new area, and have now joined one practice I enjoyed locuming at on a salaried basis while I continue to do some locum work on top using LocumDeck."
