Six Month Fixed Term Salaried GP

Primary Care Networks (PCNs) form a key building block of the NHS long-term plan. Bringing general practices together to work at scale has been a policy priority for some years for a range of reasons, including improving the ability of practices to recruit and retain staff; to manage financial and estates pressures; to provide a wider range of services to patients and to more easily integrate with the wider health and care system Following the release of ARRS GP funding we are looking for a GP, to join Chester Central Primary Care Network on a six month fixed term salaried contact.
