29th August 2017 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We carried out this announced inspection on 29 August 2017 under Section 60 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 as part of our regulatory functions. We planned the inspection to check whether the registered provider was meeting the legal requirements in the Health and Social Care Act 2008 and associated regulations. The inspection was led by a CQC inspector who was supported by a specialist dental adviser.

We told the NHS England area team and Healthwatch that we were inspecting the practice. They did not have any relevant information to share with us regarding this dental practice.

• Is it safe?

• Is it effective?

• Is it caring?

• Is it responsive to people’s needs?

• Is it well-led?

These questions form the framework for the areas we look at during the inspection.

We spoke with people who use the service. They told us staff were friendly and approachable and spoke to them in a respectful way. People we spoke with told us staff treated them with dignity and communicated well. 2one person told us “from the minute you enter the surgery they treat you well”.

People told us they had discussed the treatment options available to them and felt they were able to make informed choices about their treatment. This shows that people who use the service understood the care and treatment choices available to them. None of the people we spoke with told us they had any difficulty in making appointments. One person told us “I had to have a particular course of treatment and they made all the appointments around my work schedule”.

They told us they felt the practice delivered care and treatment in a way that met their needs. People told us they felt safe at the service and never seen anything of concern.

People told us they felt the practice was clean. People told us staff always wore gloves and other protective clothing to prevent cross contamination; this was confirmed by our observation on the day.

People told us they had the opportunity to complete patient comment forms. We saw a patient information leaflet contained information about opening times, emergency contacts and the complaints procedure.
