Locum pharmacists find voice on the internet

Locum pharmacists can share their views via a new internet forum — www.locumvoice.co.uk. Lindsey Gilpin created the site after responses to a “Wants” notice in The Journal, asking people interested in being involved in a pressure group for locum pharmacists to get in touch (PJ, 29 July, p131).

She said that the locums who responded believe that “although they form a major part of the workforce, they are often forgotten or ignored”.

The intention is to find out what matters to locums in order to pass this on to those who need to know, she said.
