Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

In February 2016, a comprehensive inspection of Dr Bevan & Partners was conducted. The practice was rated as requires improvement for safe and good for effective, caring, responsive and well led. Overall the practice was rated as good.

We found that the practice required improvement for the provision of safe services because improvements were needed in the way the practice assessed, managed and mitigated the risk associated with the spread of infections and with fire safety.

Dr Bevan and Partners sent us an action plan which set out the changes they would make to improve in these areas.

We carried out an announced desk top inspection of Dr Bevan & Partners on 20 September 2016 to ensure the practice had made these changes and that the service was meeting regulations. At this inspection we rated the practice as good for providing safe services. The overall rating for the practice remains good. For this reason we have only rated the location for the key question to which this related. This report should be read in conjunction with the full inspection report published on 16 February 2016.

Our key findings were:

  • The practice had processes in place to prevent, detect and control the spread of infections, including those that are health care associated.
  • Comprehensive fire risk policies and procedures were in place.
  • Recommended training had been undertaken by practice staff.
