4th May 2017 - During an inspection to make sure that the improvements required had been made pdf icon

Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced focussed inspection at Dr Howard Daitz (also known as the North London Health Centre) on 4 May 2017. We found the practice to be good for providing safe services and it is rated as good overall.

We previously conducted an announced comprehensive inspection of the practice on 13 April 2016. As a result of our findings, the practice was rated as good for being responsive, effective, caring and well led; and rated as requires improvement for being safe, which resulted in a rating of good overall. At that time, we found that the provider had breached Regulation 12 (Safe care and treatment) of the Health and Social Care Act 2008, due to fire safety and prescription pad security concerns.

The practice wrote to us to tell us what they would do to make improvements and meet the legal requirements. We undertook this focussed inspection to check that the practice had followed their plan, and to confirm that they had met the legal requirements.

This report only covers our findings in relation to those areas where requirements had not been met. You can read the report from our last comprehensive inspection by selecting the ‘all reports’ link for Dr Howard Daitz on our website at http://www.cqc.org.uk/location/1-520582690.

Our key findings across all the areas we inspected were as follows:

  • The provider had taken action to address fire safety concerns identified at our April 2016 inspection in that fire safety training had now taken place, a fire warden had been identified and fire drills were regularly taking place.

  • The provider had also taken action to address our concerns regarding the safe storage and monitoring of prescription pads in that a new protocol had been introduced; and we saw evidence that, in accordance with the protocol, prescription pads were now being securely stored and their usage monitored.
