GPs in Suffolk and Essex get funded NASGP membership

GP locums have been offered a range of services for the next two years, thanks to the support of Suffolk and North East Essex Training Hub.

The local organisation has partnered with NASGP to offer fully-funded NASGP membership to all GP locums working in practices across Suffolk and North East Essex.

GPs in neighbouring Hertfordshire and Essex can also take advantage of fully-funded membership.

NASGP also runs partnerships with Hampshire and the Isle of Wight ICSBerkshire Oxfordshire and West Buckinghamshire ICS, Frimley ICS and Gloucestershire ICS to offer similar support to local GPs.

GPs who want to work in Suffolk and North East Essex qualify for fully-funded use of LocumDeck. When a GP confirms just one in-person session at any participating local practice on LocumDeck we automatically give them NASGP Membership Plus, and waive local booking fees.

Dr Richard Fieldhouse, NASGP chair, wrote: “It’s really great to be rolling out fully-funded NASGP membership – and full-free use of LocumDeck – to all GP practices and GPs to another ICB.

“It’s been our dream now for over 25 years to bring about significant change in the GP workforce whereby GP locums are truly recognised as integral to patient care.

“With the support that Suffolk and North East Essex ICB are providing in partnership with NASGP, we’re 100% confident that local GPs will soon benefit from using LocumDeck and join our new GP Locum Chambers in the area.”

Get fully-funded NASGP membership to all GP locums working in practices across Suffolk and North East Essex.

"LocumDeck provides a one-stop, easy, pragmatic way to book, invoice and control my GP locum sessions. It cuts out unnecessary dealings with profit-making locum agencies. NASGP provides a wonderful resource to support GP locums above and beyond LocumDeck including informative videos on all aspects of GP locuming including pensions, NASGP Locum Chambers, CPD and more. "
