30th May 2018 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We carried out this announced inspection on 30 May 2018 under Section 60 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 as part of our regulatory functions. We planned the inspection to check whether the registered provider was meeting the legal requirements in the Health and Social Care Act 2008 and associated regulations. The inspection was led by a CQC inspector who was supported by a specialist dental adviser.

To get to the heart of patients’ experiences of care and treatment, we always ask the following five questions:

• Is it safe?

• Is it effective?

• Is it caring?

• Is it responsive to people’s needs?

• Is it well-led?

These questions form the framework for the areas we look at during the inspection.

2nd January 2014 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

During our visit to the practice we spoke with two people who used the service. We also spoke with some staff working in the practice, including the registered manager, trainee dentist, dental nurse and receptionist. People said they were happy with their care and treatment. One person told us, "I like the staff here. They are very gentle as I don't like pain."

People's needs were assessed and a detailed medical history was taken from each person and discussed prior to their treatment. Care and treatment was planned and delivered in line with their individual treatment plan. People told us their treatment and any related risks and the costs were explained. One person we spoke with said, "the dentist explains everything and gives me lots of options."

We found people received care and treatment in a clean environment. There were effective systems in place to reduce the risk of infection. Staff were able to describe the decontamination process and provided evidence to show that checks were carried out on equipment used.

All staff were trained and supported to undertake their roles. People told us they felt well treated by competent professionals.

The complaints procedure was displayed in the waiting area and in the patient information leaflet. One complaint had been made in the last year and had been appropriately dealt with.
