Clinical profiles vary by type, but allow 30 minutes for a new patient and 15 or 20 minutes for a typical follow up depending on the condition. The job plan will be reviewed annually with the Clinical Lead providing an opportunity for discussion before agreeing the individuals personal development plan.
