Welcome back to work! 2021 is here, and we’re hoping that by this time next year, we’ll be back where we love to be – at the desks of local GP practices, seeing patients, and supporting our under-staffed colleagues.
What can we do to support GP locums this year? We’ve launched a new two-minute survey to find out what you need over the next 12 months. Tell us about your circumstances today and we’ll share the results at the end of the month.
One in four GPs did fewer sessions due to pension tax, BMA finds

"I’ve done respiratory nursing clinics through Frimley ICS Primary Care Staff Bank and it was such a great experience. During my clinic I realised how valued and needed my skills are. Locuming gave me a great sense of pride and enthusiasm and I felt respected for my work. It was really easy to book and get paid too. I would recommend LocumDeck for Nurses to my colleagues."
