A thread, some numbers / facts.
My GMS contract states I shall be on call 24/7/365 to attend to GMS pts - at a surgery their home, hospital or anywhere.
No distance limit btw.
I am a fulltime member of Southdoc since it started in 2005 in East Cork.I believe in it.
I need it!
2/ GPs pay annual stipend of €4800 and work our shifts (i did more than 200 hours last year).
Average GP in east Cork saw >700 pts OOH last year (most in ENTIRE Southdoc region).
X2 GPs midweek (6pm to 11pm) and x3 on at weekends, Bank hols etc (9am to 11pm -yes ,14 hours).
