Global Staff Care Programme
Leave relief for global field doctors and their families.
A dedicated pathway for spouses and immediate family members to request time at home for doctors deployed globally in conflict, displacement, outbreak, or hardship missions without leaving patients uncovered.
Process
Four checks before a doctor travels home.
Family request
The spouse or immediate family member submits the doctor, station, role, preferred window, and contact details.
Mission review
Operations confirms caseload, security movement, active referrals, pharmacy status, and leadership sign-off.
Replacement match
A clinician with the right specialty and field profile is contracted, briefed, and scheduled for handover.
Leave clearance
Travel is cleared when patient notes, referral lists, duty rosters, and security handover are complete.
Fee use
The application cost keeps the post covered.
Replacement clinician
Daily coverage cost for the clinician who takes over the field doctor's duties.
Handover and onboarding
Clinical briefing, protocol review, security induction, pharmacy notes, and referral transfer.
Travel coordination
Family-facing support when movement, documentation, and flight timing need operational coordination.
Operations reserve
A small reserve for urgent schedule changes, delayed movement, or replacement extension.
