Particularly with larger scale working, such information needs safeguarding and access at appropriate times. To store the document ensure either keeping a hard copy in a safe location or preferably store on an encrypted USB stick or password protected part of the practice intranet. This document is free for all eGPlearners via signing up below as part of the eGPlearner induction.However, for the first week of this video, it is accessible directly via this link: www.egplearning.co.uk/gp-productivityAs always, comment, share and keep eGPlearning.#TipThursday
