SALARIED GP (4 SESSIONS) PCN TREATMENT CENTRE, TWO YR FIXED CONTRACT
Bournemouth East Collaborative Primary Care Network (PCN), situated on the stunning Dorset South Coast, comprises four like-minded practices working together in East Bournemouth, with a strong reputation on quality improvement and investing in its employees. The PCN serves a population of approximately 55,000 patients with a diverse demographic.
Practices are: Shelley Manor Medical Centre & Holdenhurst Road, Littledown Surgery, Beaufort Road Surgery and Southbourne Surgery.
The PCN is committed to developing, supporting and sustaining a diverse workforce, representative of the community it serves.
We are lucky that all our practices are located close to the sea and open green spaces, with excellent transport links, schools, places of interest for the whole family and an abundance of restaurants and bars.
The BEC Treatment Centre is based at the Shelley Manor Private Suite, and we are working to provide on-the-day clinical capacity to support our four member practices by offering GP and ANP on-the-day appointments for practices to book into. We are also offering HCA, smear clinics, MSK, and Respiratory Nurse appointments, with plans for additional services to be developed over time.
As the service is continually evolving, we are looking to recruit a Salaried GP to work within our Treatment Centre Service, for up to 4 sessions per week on a two-year fixed term contract.
