Overview
A Unique Company. As the UK's leading provider of optical care at home, we are searching for passionate Locum optometrists to join us at the forefront of domiciliary care.
Driven by our belief that clinically excellent eye care should be accessible and affordable for all, we use the latest mobile technology and processes to change people's lives for the better. We deliver our life-changing service right across the UK, supporting the NHS to provide vital eye care to people who may struggle to get to the high street unaided.
Location: Ipswich and surrounding areas. Each day you’ll see a cluster of 6–7 patients within the same local area. Travel can be up to 50 miles from your home postcode, but this won’t be every day — some days you may work just 5 miles away, other days 30–40 miles. Once in your area for the day, you’ll only have short drive between patients as they will be clustered in the same postcode region.
Equipment: All locum optometrists are provided with a full equipment kit, along with comprehensive training to ensure you feel confident before working independently. Appearance of the equipment in action can be viewed in the related materials.
