2nd August 2018 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We carried out this announced inspection on 2 August 2018 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.

To get to the heart of patients’ experiences of care and treatment, we always ask the following five questions:

• 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.

Our findings were:

28th December 2012 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

During the inspection we talked with two people using the service and two members of staff to get their views about the service that is provided by the practice.

People’s feedback showed that they were very pleased with the service they received. They all said the dentists took the time to explain their condition, treatment options and the costs so that they had all the necessary information to make informed decisions. One person said “the dentist explained your problem and the treatment so you can make a decision”. Another person reported “my treatment has occurred with a minimum of pain and discomfort”.

The practice provided care and treatment to a range of people, including people who were from ethnic minorities and those who were wheelchair users. People confirmed that their privacy was respected, whilst they received treatment. They agreed that the practice was clean and maintained appropriately.

We found that the practice had effective governance arrangements to monitor and to provide information about the quality of the service people received. These included arrangements to encourage people to express their views about the quality of the service. Where areas for improvement had been identified, the manager had action plans in place to ensure improvement of the service.
