Any practices that are interested in the Hub and Spoke model need to identify the other practice. The interested practice needs to approach a neighbouring practice to discuss the model and how it will work.

The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) outlines the standards and requirements for each practice.

The Hub practice must be an already approved training practice or in the process of becoming an approved training practice.

The Spoke Trainer will need to attend a Level 1 Clinical Supervisor training day (if not already done so). There will be a visit to the Spoke practice as part of the approval process for the GMC and the practice will be required to complete a notes audit.

In order to apply for this model, a job plan and the signed MoU will need to be submitted and approved by the relevant GP Training Programme. The contact details for the training programmes are included on the job plan.
