Staffcare locum review

The term locum is used for short (i.e. a few days), it is not cost effective either for freelance GPs (general practitioner) or for practices, to funding the amount of time pointed out above so it is crucial that induction systems are in place that can be consistently and administered efficiently. Preferably, a general practitioner, staffcare locum or long term locum should receive protected paid time for induction (covering from two meeting to one week, depending on their needs). This is a vital investment that any practice must make to maintain standards and should be a part of any contractual deal for these doctors. Although there are both pros and cons to being a locum, there are clearly a lot of disadvantages. Unpredictable work means irregular income and this requires careful consideration, especially if locums have fixed mortgage payments and bills to pay each month. There is no holiday pay, sick pay, or maternity pay, or indeed any of the other frills that come with permanent job. Some GPs find locuming upsetting, not knowing where they are going from day to day work, doing a morning operation at one practice and then an afternoon surgery somewhere else, but others find this multiplicity an exciting challenge. In the last, most comp health locum find they get normal work from a handful of practices, which keeps them in some sort of stable service.
