We are very proud to be amongst the first GP surgery employers to become a member of the Good Employer Charter. We have always held staff wellbeing and employment conditions as high as patient care delivery. Working to achieve these set of standards that benchmark how good employment should look, irrespective of type of organisation, has supported us in ensuring no aspect of good employment has been overlooked.
