"I was introduced to the local locum chambers several months ago when I made a career move from partnership. I now combine salaried and locum roles. The chambers provides helpful support, leadership, advice and governance and reduces professional isolation. This combination of support reassures me and helps me provide safe and consistent care to patients within the community . There is a useful, innovative online portal - LocumDeck - which helps me access local work and which has efficient systems for reconciliation of finance including pensions. I would highly recommend joining a locum chambers for any GPs starting out in the locum world ."
"LocumDeck is self-explanatory and having never made/sent an invoice before it's made my life a lot easier, and made me feel reassured I hadn’t forgotten anything important.
I’ve recommended it to my colleague/friend who is also starting out as a GP locum."
"I started my career as a GP locum last year a week after CCT. I strongly agree with the doctors who praise the NASGP team. If there is no NASGP, there would be no GP locum called Dr Darshanie Seneviratne.
The team is absolutely amazing especially Dr Richard Fieldhouse, Ali Lewis and Jacqui Gumbrell – all providing unbelievable support to us. I've never seen such urgent assistance from any other team at any point in my career. For example when one of my invoices was delayed by a month and a half, Ali was incredibly supportive. It is a very good strength for us as we have support with any issues. I would like to stay with this amazing team forever. "
"I have been a member of the NASGP for the past nine years and have found the advice and support offered invaluable. NASGP passionately champions for safe and fair working conditions for locums, which is crucial in an age of increasing medical litigation.
LocumDeck is a must for every locum who just wants to get on with the job that they were trained to do."
"Going from being a trainee to being a GP can be a really difficult transition. Taking on the administration associated with things like locum work can make that even more difficult.
Ali from LocumDeck showed me how to use their tool to simplify and automate the invoicing and locum form process to save me time and energy. With the free one-year membership for new GPs this was a real no-brainer that meant I could spend more time on the things that really matter, and less time filling in paperwork.
I can't thank Ali enough for her help and the time she has saved me."
"I was delighted to have been invited to join GP locum chambers. I enjoy great peer support from my colleagues via our monthly meetings, which has been helpful to me discussing some specific things that arise with GP locum working. I have found LocumDeck really straightforward to use and immensely helpful; in particular invoicing and the pension forms A and B has cut down my admin time dramatically, which I’m pleased about. The support from NASGP's membership support manager, is excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. I would recommend NASGP chambers to anyone working or thinking of working as a GP locum."

LocumDeck has a smart way of booking designed by GP locums which means you don’t have to find work – the work finds you. It’s called Instant Book.
With Instant Book, you don’t have to wait for job alerts from practices. Instead, you set up your terms and profile, tell your chosen practices how you want to work and add your availability to LocumDeck’s calendar. Your practices can review your terms and credentials then book you instantly.
Practices like the efficiency of not having to post alerts and wait for responses, and you get the work you want on your terms, with minimal hassle and fewer booking errors.
Our LocumDeck Setup Guides have a step-by-step introduction, ‘Get booked by practices‘, which can get you started.

GPs can also look out for ‘Availability requests’ from local practices.
If a practice on LocumDeck needs cover but no locums have made themselves available for pre-set instant booking on the dates they need, the practice can send out an Availability request, to all GP locums on LocumDeck within a 45-minute radius.
GP locums can quickly respond by clicking on the request on the calendar, and selecting a session to offer for booking. The practice gets notified when a GP locum responds. The practice can review the GP’s LocumDeck profile and terms, and book you right away.
