21st October 2013 - During an inspection to make sure that the improvements required had been made pdf icon

This inspection was to follow up on shortfalls we identified in our previous inspection regarding the management of decontamination processes and prevention of cross infection.

We found the provider had made improvements to the decontamination room. These included the fitment of a door, repair of the extraction fan and installation of an air conditioning unit. These improvements meant the air movement from a 'dirty' to 'clean' area was reduced and lowered the risk of cross contamination.

We saw environmental cleaning records and equipment checks were up to date. The provider had introduced a new test to measure the effectiveness of the steriliser to ensure all elements of the sterilisation process were tested.

The provider had implemented an infection control audit schedule to monitor the effectiveness of cleaning and infection control procedures. There were no outstanding actions and the most recent audit demonstrated 100% compliance.

16th July 2013 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We spoke with three people attending the dental practice and most of the staff working at the practice.

People we spoke with told us they were satisfied with service they received. One person said "everything’s fine. Everyone’s friendly and helpful.” Another person told us “the treatment is very good. I’m very happy.”

People told us they found the practice to be clean. One person said “I have no qualms about the cleanliness.” Another person agreed saying “it’s always clean and tidy.” Accurate records were maintained of all checks completed on the washer disinfector and steriliser. We saw the equipment had been routinely serviced.

We observed the decontamination room was not equipped to prevent and control the risk of infection. The provider did not have an infection control audit schedule in place to monitor risk.

We saw the dental surgeons regularly attended professional and clinical practice updates to enable them to deliver safe and effective treatment. Dental nursing staff were able to access online training to enable them to meet the continuing professional development requirements of their professional regulatory body. All staff attended training in emergency management procedures, for example, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

The provider had a system in place to regularly assess and monitor the quality of service that people received.
