Job responsibilities:

Duties: The workload of the Surgery is shared jointly by the clinicians available on the day. The salaried GP is expected to take part in the share of clinical duties including the below list. The needs of the patient population and medical practice should be taken into consideration, meaning this list is not exhaustive and is subject to review and amendment by mutual agreement.

Clinical Duties:

• Appointments, visits, dealing with queries from patients or other health care professionals.
• Home Visits (if appropriate and agreed): These are shared amongst the GP team or the Specialist Practitioner present on the day, if patient appropriate and depending on workload.
• Remote Consultations: Some clinics may be required to be taken via remote consultation using the approved technology. Where operational standards are met for home working, remote clinics can be carried out at your place of residence or some other agreed place outside of the Practice as agreed with the Managing Partner.
• Being on Call and Total Digital Triage: The salaried GP will be required to participate in on-call duties once per week, providing clinical advice and support as needed. This includes responding to urgent patient queries, coordinating care with other healthcare professionals, and ensuring continuity of care outside normal clinic hours. In addition, the GP will be involved with the total digital triage system, reviewing patient requests submitted via approved digital platforms and ensuring timely, safe, and appropriate clinical responses. On-call and triage duties will be shared fairly amongst the GP team and scheduled in advance wherever possible.
• Administration/Paperwork: Arising both directly from own and Practice caseload (referrals, investigations, results). The Salaried GP is responsible for their own patient-associated referrals, correspondence, administration, and paperwork. They will be expected to take a share of practice general incoming clinical correspondence (scanned documents), repeat prescriptions, results, and patient-associated tasks (patient enquiries and phone calls). Any results that get processed by yourself must be actioned appropriately including calling or texting the patient to inform them.
