By unscheduled, we are referring to patients who want to see a doctor acutely (i.e. they did not book into a routine scheduled appointment). There are a variety of settings in which patients present urgently in an UNSCHEDULED manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Duty Doctor for the surgery (i.e. on-call surgeries)<\/li><li>Out of Hours Emergency GP Centres<\/li><li>GP centre attached to A&amp;E departments<\/li><li>GP Extended hours work where the appointments are for acute unscheduled problems and not routine.<\/li><li>Other primary care emergency\/acute services delivered within a secondary care or community care provider.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, don\u2019t just rely on one of these places for gathering evidence for your engagement in Urgent Unscheduled Care. Your experience (and evidence) should be from a mixture of working with these services.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, the out of hours provider in Mid Sussex is&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ic24.org.uk\/\">IC24<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-nhsblocks-reveal1 nhsuk-details\"><summary class=\"nhsuk-details__summary\" role=\"button\"><span class=\"nhsuk-details__summary-text\">When to do UUC<\/span><\/summary><div class=\"nhsuk-details__text\" id=\"details-content-\" aria-hidden=\"false\"><p>You must start engaging in all posts that are based in General Practice (including GP posts in the ST1 or ST2 stage).

That equated to roughly ONE session per month \u2013 each session lasting 4-6 hours.<\/p><p>However, in their latest guidance, the RCGP is moving away from number of sessions. Instead, they want you to do enough sessions to provide adequate evidence of capability in all of the above 5 Professional Capability Areas (or 13 Professional Capabilities).<\/p><p>\u201cTime served\u201d should not be seen as the model against which to define the attainment of Urgent &amp; Unscheduled Care capabilities.<\/p><p>The only exception to this new guidance is if you have a contractual requirement to complete a certain number of OOH sessions \u2013 your TPDs will be able to tell you.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-nhsblocks-reveal1 nhsuk-details\"><summary class=\"nhsuk-details__summary\" role=\"button\"><span class=\"nhsuk-details__summary-text\">Clinical Supervisor<\/span><\/summary><div class=\"nhsuk-details__text\" id=\"details-content-\" aria-hidden=\"false\"><p>The Clinical Supervisor is trained and selected appropriately to be responsible for overseeing a specified trainee\u2019s clinical work and providing constructive feedback during their placement. You should have a clinical supervisor who you can refer to for every clinical session you do \u2013 for both urgent and routine work. So, when your doing on-call for your practice, be sure to find out who your clinical supervisor is and make sure you touch base with them.<\/p><p>It might be a different doctor every time you do in-house practice on-call. During OOH sessions, you will be told who your Clinical Supervisor is. They will closely supervise you, unless they feel you are good enough to start working a little more independently. Even then, you should always ensure every clinical session is debriefed with them.<\/p><p>GP trainees undertaking direct, near and remote sessions should have an identified individual who will, (for the duration of that session) have the lead responsibility for ensuring the safety of both the trainee and patients and who has been appropriately trained.<\/p><p>Clinical supervisors should raise concerns where appropriate.For clinical competence concerns,<\/p><p>Even if the trainee fails to attend a session.<\/p><p>They should know who to contact and the appropriate pathways to raise concerns.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-nhsblocks-reveal1 nhsuk-details\"><summary class=\"nhsuk-details__summary\" role=\"button\"><span class=\"nhsuk-details__summary-text\">How to log UUC Learning<\/span><\/summary><div class=\"nhsuk-details__text\" id=\"details-content-\" aria-hidden=\"false\"><p>Use the form provided by the RCGP to log your learning with respect to each Urgent Unscheduled Care session you are involved in.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-nhsblocks-reveal1 nhsuk-details\"><summary class=\"nhsuk-details__summary\" role=\"button\"><span class=\"nhsuk-details__summary-text\">Out of Hours &#8211; 40 hours a week <\/span><\/summary><div class=\"nhsuk-details__text\" id=\"details-content-\" aria-hidden=\"false\"><p>Don\u2019t forget, if you do any shifts at a local Out of Hours centre \u2013 this needs to come off the 40 hours maximum working time per week. Your practice will not know when you are doing Out of Hours. So, when you have your dates, please tell your Practice Manager early so that he or she can tweak your rota to ensure your average week working time remains 40 hours and no more. Telling them in advance helps them to do this without disrupting the service provision to patients from their practice.<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"nhsuk-card__description\">Currently, the out of hours provider in Mid Sussex is&nbsp;IC24.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":2,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-92","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Urgent Unschedule Care (UUC) - Mid Sussex &amp;
