Are you planning to return to work after parental leave?
We know that returning to work after having a baby can be a mix of emotions – from excitement to nervousness – but we want you to know that you’re not alone. We are here to help you navigate this transition. Being a parent can bring a wealth of new personal experience and empathy to your practice. You may find that you’re better able to connect with your patients and understand the challenges they face when it comes to managing their health needs and their children’s needs. So don’t underestimate the value of your role as a parent – it can make you an even more effective and compassionate GP.
We strongly encourage you to take advantage of our mentoring scheme to receive ongoing support as you transition back to work. Additionally, we have created a return-to-work proforma that you can provide to your practice manager to help build a schedule that suits both you and your team, and to help restore your confidence in your professional abilities.
