HEE GP Fellowships – 2022\/23<\/h5>\n

Up to 28 post-CCT fellows can be supported by HEE NW this year. This is in\u00a0addition to the fellowships that will be supported by NHS England & NHS\u00a0Improvement and there may be some shared support for both approaches.
\nThe NHSE\/I model is being coordinated by Training Hubs and details will be\u00a0shared with NW practices in due course.\u00a0 Aims of the HEE Post-CCT Fellowship Programme:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Meet regional and local population health needs by:
\no Aligning with STP (Sustainability and Transformation Partnership)\/ICS (Integrated Care System) or other locally identified priorities
\no Contributing to the delivery of high-quality health care
\no Addressing unequal workforce distribution
\no Reducing health inequalities
\n\u2022 Making the GP role more attractive and helping \u201cdeliver the promise\u201d of a varied and stimulating career
\n\u2022 Contributing to the development of future GP system leaders<\/p>\n

Bidding partner organisations should be North West-based health organisations within the health,\u00a0social or voluntary sectors.\u00a0\u00a0Fellows appointed by successful organisations should be within the first five years of achieving\u00a0their CCT, hold a license to practice with the GMC and have full inclusion on the National Medical\u00a0Perfomer List.<\/p>\n

GP fellowships should usually include a minimum of four clinical sessions in primary care and two\u00a0sessions of personal development time per week.\u00a0\u00a0An integrated Fellowship offering opportunities to develop across clinical systems will usually\u00a0\u00a0include a minimum of three clinical sessions in primary care, and a minimum of two sessions in\u00a0\u00a0another clinical sphere of work and two sessions of personal development time per week.\u00a0\u00a0Fellowships offering the opportunity to develop a specific area of work such as frailty, mental\u00a0health, dermatology or other clinical or leadership areas will be encouraged.
\nPersonal development time should be self-directed by the fellow in areas of relevance to their\u00a0fellowship, e.g. quality improvement activities, attendance at courses\/university, time spent\u00a0shadowing or in other organisations, attendance at education events locally such as Post CCT
\nfellow support, Higher Professional Education (HPE) or Professional Education and Development\u00a0(PED).\u00a0\u00a0Host practices and organisations should consider how the fellows will be mentored and supported\u00a0to get the best from the scheme, for example a named GP or lead who might meet on a regular\u00a0(for example monthly) basis to review progress and provide support.\u00a0 Information can be found here –\u00a0HEE NW 22-23 Post CCT Fellowship Information<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
