Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice
We carried out an announced inspection at Clift Surgery Partners on 24 August 2016 to monitor whether the practice had made improvements related to medicines management, identified at our inspection in February 2015.
At our last inspection in February 2015, areas which did not meet the regulations were:
Prescriptions were not reviewed to ensure they were signed by a GP before they were given to a patient.
Fridge temperatures were recorded but we were unable to see historical records.
Keys for controlled drugs and prescription forms were accessible by all staff entering the dispensary.
Prescription serial numbers were not recorded when they were given to GPs to use.
Standard operating procedures (SOP) for dealing with medicines were in place but some of the SOPs, especially for controlled drugs (CDs) were not complete as they needed to reflect the procedures at the practice.
At this inspection in August 2016, we found that the provider had taken action to meet the requirement. Key findings were as follows:
The practice had a suitable system in place for reviewing prescriptions prior to being given to patients.
Complete records of fridge temperatures were available for inspection.
Keys for controlled drugs and prescription forms were kept securely and only accessible to authorised members of staff.
Records were maintained of prescription serial numbers when they were given to GPs.
Standard operating procedures had been reviewed and reflected procedures at the practice.
The Care Quality Commission is satisfied that the regulations are now met. However, there are two areas where the practice should consider making further improvements:
The practice should make sure that maximum and minimum temperatures are recorded for all medicine fridges and that actions are noted when the temperature is outside of the recommended range.
The practice’s stock management system for blank prescription stationery should include what has been received, along with serial number data.
The full report published on 9 July 2015 should be read in conjunction with this report. The rating for the safe domain is now good and the overall rating remains good.
