Sara Chambers and Richard Fieldhouse talk about getting started as a locum GP from the viewpoint of having just qualified.
We cover who to notify, the positives of being a locum, what kit you’ll need, and which channels for finding work are available, and their pros and cons.
Listen to the podcast below, or download ‘Thriving as a GP locum’ handbook, aimed at anyone from those new to locuming to longterm experienced locums.
"I first found LocumDeck when looking to help retain GP locums in the area. I have since moved my own practice in my final years to work as a locum. I was so impressed with the ease of booking and control it gives. Ease of billing, help with NHS pension contributions, and end of tax year summaries are an enormous bonus for GP locums. As an NASGP Locum Chambers member I am supported as a GP locum in a way that would not be possible otherwise. "
Dr Mick Watts, GP locum, Frimley
