28th September 2017 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We carried out this announced inspection on 28 September 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 Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspector who was supported by a specialist dental adviser.

We told the NHS England area team that we were inspecting the practice. They provided information which we took into account.

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:

Are services safe?

We found that this practice was providing safe care in accordance with the relevant regulations.

Are services effective?

We found that this practice was providing effective care in accordance with the relevant regulations.

Are services caring?

The registered manager at City Airport Dental Surgery was the practice manager.

On the day of inspection we received feedback from 22 patients. This information gave us a positive view of the practice.

23rd October 2013 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We spoke to five people who used the service and three members of staff. Patients said, "the receptionist is great and the dentist very caring" and "they are very understanding and good with children."

We found that dentists discussed treatment options with patients and respected their wishes. Patients told us "staff are lovely, very polite" and that they felt respected. One patient said, “they are very understanding of my anxiety.”

Patients told us the treatment was effective. One patient said, “I am very happy and satisfied with the treatment.” We found that dentists assessed risks and needs before planning and delivering treatment. There were arrangements to deal with foreseeable emergencies.

Patients told us they felt safe when using the service. We found that staff were trained in safeguarding people from abuse and were familiar with how to recognise signs of abuse. The service had appropriate procedures for reporting suspected abuse.

We found the service had a number of audits, checks and procedures to safeguard against infection. Patients said cleanliness was "superb." The provider followed appropriate guidance for the cleaning, sterilising and storage of dental instruments.

Staff told us they felt supported by managers and we found evidence that staff were supported to access further qualifications and training.

The provider had an effective system to regularly assess and monitor the quality of service via audits and patient surveys.
