Please note these rotations may be subject to change.
ITP – Rotations with a split working week with time spent in General Practice and a specialty. You will have a clinical supervisor in each of the two elements of the job. The working week will mirror that of General Practice with limits on the amount of antisocial work as per the 2016 trainee GP contract.
Community Post – Community-focused specialty post where the majority of the working week is spent working with outpatients (i.e. patients who attend from, and return to home) or in a community setting separate from an acute trust. The working week may include a proportion of on call work.
GP+–Rotations with a split working week with time spent in General Practice and a non-patient facing specialty. You will have a clinical supervisor in each of the two elements of the job. The working week will mirror that of General Practice with limits on the amount of antisocial work as per the 2016 trainee GP contract.
If you have any particular disability arrangements or reasonable adjustments which must be considered, please ensure this is discussed with the patch team(s) well in advance when browsing the available rotations. Please contact GPRecruitment.SW@hee.nhs.uk who will put you in contact with the relevant team to discuss your needs in relation to the rotations available in this recruitment round.
If you have any questions about the rotations please contact GPRecruitment.SW@hee.nhs.uk. Please do not contact the patch teams directly as they do not receive a final list of new starters until all rotations have been allocated which will be the beginning of May.
Somerset Rotations - (note innovation posts are likely to be unbanded, regular daytime hours, but specifically designed for GP training posts). Please note that placements are subject to change and cannot be confirmed at this stage particularly practices. We are a largely rural area and our practices cover the whole of Somerset so please do consider that you may be placed in a practice that will inevitably involve commuting. Integrated innovation posts will be linked to a practice likely and the 12 months ST2 will likely be 6 months integrated and 6 months GP.
