https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/f/nonclinical-discussions/31594/locum-nursingJust would like to pick you brains. I’m a Locum nurse with 24 years experience. I am self employed. I have full cover and I think charge a fair fee. After 3 years am just getting the odd cancellation. Do any of my Locum friends send out contracts to theen-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/174462?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 11 Apr 2019 11:23:28 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:28533441-826f-41f4-994f-26a2689de575Zoe Davies RVN <p>Do you have contracts?</p> <p>i have not got one and am wondering if i should get one&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/174461?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 11 Apr 2019 10:04:25 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:26b16730-1b92-4b30-bb67-64c613e47451Claire Coulthard RVN <p>hi,</p> <p>ive had one cancellation recently after 4/5 years of locum life and it did make me pause and consider adding in a cancellation fee to my contract if within a certain time frame. i havent added it yet though.</p> <p>i dont charge mileage for practices but if they are further away from home/need last minute cover i do charge more than my &#39;usual&#39; rate. (i dont usually do this for my regulars though)&nbsp;</p> <p></p> <p></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
