What we do

Workforce

Overview

Workforce is a priority for our regional health and care system. Our GPCB workforce programme develops creative, innovative solutions to the workforce challenges practices face. The programme also supports new initiatives, which help ease the pressures on the general practice workforce.

The programme is overseen by a committee of general practice members.

 

Workforce programme initiatives

 

Recruitment pool

The recruitment pool helps make staff recruitment easier for practices by enabling the sharing of potential applicants’ details. It also has a work experience section featuring the details of anyone who is seeking a placement in general practice. Practices that would like to offer work experience can email workexperience@onecare.org.uk

The pool is available to staff with practice management Teamnet access.

Introductory video for new staff

The video helps new members of general practice staff understand how general practice works, and how it fits into the wider BNSSG healthcare system.

You can watch the video here.
