Job description

Face to Face GP – Out of Hours Service – Oxfordshire

This is a rare opportunity to join the Out of Hours (OOH) service in Oxfordshire and be part of a wider team providing community based urgent care that is both innovative and integrated. As an Out of Hours GP, working for the people of Oxfordshire, your role will be varied, interesting, and ultimately rewarding. As part of an agreed job plan, the substantive post holder will work in the OOH service during the overnight period, which may also be combined with shifts scheduled for weekday evenings and weekends where available. Working out of one of our base locations across Oxfordshire, they will use their clinical expertise and professional knowledge to work within a multi-disciplinary team to deliver an urgent care service (when normal primary care is closed) that is of high quality and ensures excellent patient centered care. Shifts can be of varying length and type providing appropriate urgent and same day care within a clinic base or home visiting setting. As part of the role, the appointed GP may also be required to provide medical support and advice to our Single Point of Access (SPA) and other same day services operated by OHFT. This is a countywide service, and although a usual working base will be agreed with each successful candidate, there may be a requirement to work out of other base sites or Trust offices these include bases in Banbury, Bicester, Oxford, Witney, Abingdon, and Henley (travel/mileage costs will be reimbursed as per Trust policy). As part of this role, there will also be a requirement to support learning and development needs of GP trainees and non-medical practitioners.

In all areas, you will be working with excellent multidisciplinary teams and benefit from an extensive programme of work we are undertaking to improve our systems and processes so that you feel supported and remain focused on your clinical work.
