Locum doctors in English general practices: evidence from a national survey

CONCLUSION: Locum working is an essential part of English general practice, but this research raises some concerns about the robustness of arrangements for locum working and the impact on quality and safety of care. Further research is needed about the clinical practice and performance of locums, and to explore how locum working can be organised in ways that assure safe and high-quality care.PMID:37604697 | DOI:10.3399/BJGP.2023.0039
