Primary care. Don't leave me this way
Abstract:
Primary care has an ageing workforce. A quarter of GP principals, half of single-handed doctors, and 44 percent of practice managers in this study were over 50. The data suggests that 166 extra staff will have to be recruited for each primary care group in the study area over the next five years. Individual practices and PCGs need to be made aware of the need for workforce planning. PCGs will have to address the issue of ensuring that practice staff have equity with those in other parts of the NHS.
