31st August 2016 - During an inspection to make sure that the improvements required had been made

Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We previously carried out an announced comprehensive inspection of Dr Wingfield & Partners on 18 November 2015. A breach of legal requirements was found. After the comprehensive inspection, the practice wrote to us and submitted an action plan outlining the actions they would take to meet legal requirements in relation to;

• Regulation 12 Health & Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 – safe care and treatment.

From the inspection on 18 November 2015, the practice were told they must:

• Ensure an appropriate system is in place for the safe use and management of medicines and prescriptions, including those used in an emergency.

We undertook a focused inspection at Dr Wingfield & Partners on 31 August 2016 to check that they had followed their plan and to confirm that they now met legal standards and requirements. This report only covers our findings in relation to those areas found to be requiring improvement. You can read the report from our last comprehensive inspection, by selecting 'all reports' link for Dr Wingfield & Partners on our website at www.cqc.org.uk

We found that on the 31 August 2016 the practice now had improved systems in place and we found the following key findings:

• Practice specific protocols and procedures had been developed to ensure the safe management of medicines and prescriptions.
• Access to emergency medicines and equipment had been improved to improve patient safety and reduce risk.
