Many GPs choose to work as locums (‘sessional GPs’) to achieve greater flexibility, combine clinical work with portfolio roles, or whilst searching for a permanent role. It can be isolating to work in this way but there are a range of local organisations and resources to help you stay in touch with colleagues and keep up to date. If you are new to working in Devon and would like to chat to a locum GP colleague who works in your area we can put you in touch – please email us at devon.traininghub@nhs.net for more information.
