A two-year programme of personalised support for NQGPs | Apply today!
What is this?
Provided by NHS England / Improvement, Healthier Together, and BNSSG Training Hub, this two-year programme has been devised to help newly qualified GPs to gain confidence at work and develop enjoyable, fulfilling, and sustainable careers in general practice.
NHS England have announced the National Newly Qualified GP Fellowship Programme will close on the 31st March 2024. We know this news will come as a significant disappointment. All Fellows currently on the programme, or who join before the 31st March 2024 will receive their full 2 years of funding and support. We would like to encourage anyone who is eligible to contact us asap. You will be eligible to join the programme if you are a Newly Qualified GP and you have a permanent job in a practice in BNSSG starting on or before 31st March 2024.
If you participate in this programme, you will be supported with:
- Funded CPD Time: Fellows will receive paid, protected time for continuing professional development activities
- Induction: To both the Fellowship Programme and their practice and primary care network (PCN)
- Clinical Supervision: A clinical supervisor, with whom you will meet once a month, will be provided by your practice
- Mentoring: You will also be matched with an experienced local GP mentor, with whom you will meet once a month
- Peer Support: You will be offered the chance to join a peer support group with other newly qualified GPs
- Career Development: The Training Hub will share learning and development opportunities, with an emphasis on portfolio working, and provide access to career coaching
Who can join this programme?
This programme is intended for newly qualified general practitioners (GPs). More specifically, to participate, you must:
- Be working in a permanent salaried, partner, or retainer role in a GP practice in Bristol, North Somerset, or South Gloucestershire
- Start this programme within 12 months of your CCT date; this can be extended to 18 months if personal circumstances come into play
If you are an international medical graduate (IMG), you are welcome to apply for this programme if you fulfil the above criteria.
What do practices need to know?
There are several benefits for practices participating in this programme, as follows:
- You will attract and retain newly qualified GPs in permanent roles
- Your newly qualified GPs will receive extra support as they start independent practice
- Fellows can use their funded CPD time to keep up-to-date clinically, gain additional skills that may be of use to the practice, and contribute to practice / PCN projects
As to what practices need to do to participate in this programme, you need to:
- Provide an induction to the practice and primary care network (PCN)
- Nominate a clinical supervisor — an experienced GP with whom the fellow can meet for one hour per month, for the duration of the fellowship (please note: no funding is available for this role)
- Consider what career development opportunities you can offer the fellow (e.g., shadowing, leadership and management roles, quality improvement projects, etc.)
