A quick definition of locum tenens:

LOCUM TENENS: A locum tenens is someone who takes the place of another person temporarily. It's like having a substitute teacher or a backup player in a sports team. They are there to do the job until the original person comes back.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Locum tenens is a Latin term that means "holding the place." It refers to a person who acts as a substitute or representative for someone else.

Example 1: A doctor who goes on vacation may hire a locum tenens to take care of their patients while they are away.

Example 2: A company may hire a locum tenens to fill in for an employee who is on maternity leave.

These examples illustrate how a locum tenens can be used to hold the place of someone who is temporarily absent. The locum tenens is responsible for performing the duties of the person they are substituting for, and they are expected to do so to the best of their ability.
