Working As A Locum Doctor: What You Need To Consider

If you are a doctor working as a locum, then you are part of an increasing number of people who do just that. Working as a locum has a lot of benefits, not the least of which is that you can work when you want to and not work if you don’t want to. So, you can take time off to suit you and then find another locum position when you need to earn.

Not All GP Practices Are The Same

Running a GP practice can be very different from most other types of business in the sense that you are always, always busy. Someone who runs a restaurant, for example, might be sitting there on a wet and windy night as Storm Franklin blasts away outside, and perhaps only have a couple of customers in all evening. With a GP practice, you are never sitting there twiddling your thumbs. If anything, there are too many things to do.

Locum Insurance For Vets Makes Perfect Sense

If you run a veterinary practice, it will tend to be one of two types. There are practices in towns and cities that mainly provide care for pets – dogs, cats, parrots, hamsters, and so on – and there are other veterinary surgeries that provide services largely to farmers, looking after their cattle, sheep, hens, pigs, and so on, although those practices will also have quite a number of pets in their care as well.
