  • The practice had replaced the floor covering in the clinical area where the practice nurse carried out treatment room duties with cleanable flooring to ensure infection control standards were maintained. There was a system in place to regularly deep clean the carpets in other consulting rooms.

  • We saw evidence of minutes of clinical meetings recording actions discussed and agreed.
