Wakefield General Practice Training Events Calendar is live!

Image
One of the roles for the Wakefield General Practice Workforce Development Academy is to facilitate education and training across Wakefield for all of the Wakefield General Practice workforce. We have set up a calendar of training events. It is publicly accessible on Google calendars, its not on Skyline so you don't need any passwords or logins to access it. It is a Google calendar so you could add it to your Google login if you wanted to, but you don't need to. At the moment we just have TARGET dates for the next 12 months. And by the way wasn't the GP TARGET at Pontefract great yesterday. We certainly had a full house, can you spot yourself in the picture! To access the calendar click here  and if you have any events planned you want to add click here to email me with them.

What ever happened to WRaPT?

Not sure if you can recall but during the summer and early autumn the Academy worked hard to promote WRaPT. WRaPT is a workforce repository tool that supports the collection and analysis of workforce and activity data across multiple organisations. We hoped to use it to model the workforce across and within organization’s and use it to model the effect of various scenarios associated with the initiatives of the New Model of Care Vanguard. The Academy went to every Federation to discuss WRaPT and then we spent a lot of time getting consent from every practice (except one) to share workforce and activity data.

The improved performance is because the Academy Co-ordinator proactively contacted practices before the submission deadline to ensure that they had submitted data. The number of practices in Wakefield has fallen from 38 to 36 but the report still does not reflect further practice mergers that have taken place. Below is a summary of the latest data compared with the last reliable quarter data (Q4 16/17). This is a graph of workforce trends over the four years we have been collecting data for. Looking at the data at the end of Q2 17/18 compared with Q4 16/17: The number of wte GPs in Wakefield has reduced from 232 to 212 There is continued low risk from retirement of GPs The number of practice nurses has reduced from 152 to 137 There is continued high risk...
