Most health systems struggle to recruit and retain GPs and other members of the primary care workforce. National factors play a part, but local factors are relevant and by understanding these a difference can be made by local action.
PCC recently worked with NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin Integrated Care Board to survey prospective workforce members, employers and the current workforce to provide a greater understanding of the local factors. The primary care workforce lead said “We’re confident that PCC’s involvement will help us in our overall objectives in recruiting and retaining more GPs in our practices”.
