Success For Locum Select At Career Pathways Event

Career Pathways - organised by the publisher of Pulse and Nursing in Practice - is the UK's only recruitment event dedicated to GPs and Nurses working in Primary Care.  The most recent Career Pathways event took place on the 19th March 2014 at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel and Locum Select were proud to be one of the exhibitors.

Now more than ever, it is important for GPs and nurses to be aware of their options within a changing NHS landscape. By bringing together experts from within the NHS and healthcare organisations, the conference sessions gave details of the many options open to GPs and nurses across the UK as well as internationally.   The experts were also on hand to cover case studies of specific career pathways which may have inspired budding locums.

The 2014 conference programme kicked off with a keynote address from Elizabeth Eddy, Head of Skills and Employability at NHS England. Elizabeth was joined by other notable speakers, including Dr James Kingsland OBE, president of the National Association for Primary Care, Sam Sherrington, Head of Nursing and Midwifery Strategy at NHS England and George Coxon, notable Independent Health Care Advisor.

Locum Select had a great day, not only were they able to speak to and recruit a number of GPs and Nurses, several GPs who are already registered with Locum Select came over for chat.  They also had enquiries from newly qualified GPs who are looking for locum work as well as a number of partner GPs looking to leave a practice and just locum, allowing them to focus just on patient care.

It was an enjoyable and successful day and the Locum Select team really enjoyed coming face to face with so many GPs and Nurses.
