AUDLEM MEDICAL PRACTICE - We are a 5100 patient rural practice based in the traditional Cheshire village of Audlem. We are looking for a part-time GP to work Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday to support our current clinical team of 3 GP partners, 1 Nurse Practitioner, 1 Nurse Prescriber, and 1 Nurse Associate. We have embraced the ARRS scheme with a Social Prescriber, Physiotherapist, Pharmacist, and Care Co-Ordinator working with an extended administration team to reduce the load on clinicians. We are a training practice and also host Keele University Medical Students.
We are a friendly team and value all our staff and their well-being. We support and encourage personal and practice development to improve both the care we deliver and our working lives. We score highly on the national GP survey and having patients that are happy with the service we provide helps us all feel good about what we do.
We have a monthly practice meeting and development session, regular clinical meetings, and promote an equal, informed, and enjoyable working environment, including shared lunchtimes in the staff room.
We have excellent staff retention, and we are looking for somebody who wants to develop their career and deliver excellent care.
