People’s privacy, dignity and independence were respected. People’s views and experiences were taken into account in the way the service was provided and delivered in relation to their care. One patient told us "I always know what’s happening with my treatment,” another person told us "the dentists and staff are very professional."

People experienced care, treatment and support that met their needs and protected their rights. All the patients we spoke with told us they were happy with the treatment that they received. One patient said, "I get a good level of service here." Another person said “I get professional treatment and service.”

People were cared for in a clean, hygienic environment. There were effective systems in place to reduce the risk and spread of infection. We saw that surgeries were clean and well maintained and staff told us that specific cleaning routines were in place to maintain hygiene standards.

People were cared for, or supported by, suitably qualified, skilled and experienced staff. Appropriate checks were undertaken before staff began work at the practice.

The provider had an effective system to regularly assess and monitor the quality of service that people received. People who used the service and staff were asked for their views about care and treatment and if those views were acted on. We saw the analysis of this feedback. Very positive feedback had been recorded.
