Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Dr D E Hopper and Partners on 6 October 2015. Overall the practice is rated as good.

Please note that when referring to information throughout this report, for example any reference to the Quality and Outcomes Framework data, this relates to the most recent information available to the CQC at that time.

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

  • Staff understood and fulfilled their responsibilities to raise concerns and to report incidents and near misses.

  • Risks to patients were generally assessed and well managed, with the exception of those relating to the management of medicines where patients were at risk of receiving ineffective or unsafe medicines, including vaccines, as they had not been stored at the correct temperatures.

  • Patients’ needs were assessed and care was planned and delivered following best practice guidance.

  • Staff had received training appropriate to their roles and any further training needs had been identified and planned.

  • Patients said they were treated with compassion, dignity and respect and they were involved in their care and decisions about their treatment.

  • Information about services and how to complain was available and easy to understand.

  • Patients said they found it easy to make an appointment with a named GP and that there was continuity of care, with urgent appointments available the same day.

  • The practice had good facilities and was well equipped to treat patients and meet their needs.

  • There was a clear leadership structure and staff felt supported by management. The practice proactively sought feedback from staff and patients, which it acted on.

However there were areas of practice where the provider needs to make improvements.

The area where the provider must make improvement is:

  • Ensure there are effective arrangements in place to ensure that vaccines and other medicines stored in the refrigerators are stored at the correct temperatures.

The area where the provider should make improvement is:

  • Ensure that the systems in place for the identification and management of risk are timely, robust and cover all areas of the practice.

1st January 1970 - During an inspection to make sure that the improvements required had been made pdf icon

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Field House Medical Group on 13 November 2017. The overall rating for the practice was requires improvement. The full comprehensive report on the November 2017 inspection can be found by selecting the ‘all reports’ link for Field House Medical Group on our website at .

This inspection was an announced focused site visit carried out on 27 June 2018 to confirm that the practice had carried out their plan to meet the legal requirements in relation to the ‘musts’ (breaches of regulations) and ‘shoulds’ that we identified in our previous inspection on 13 November 2017. This report covers our findings in relation to those requirements and also additional improvements made since our last inspection.

At our inspection on 13 November 2017 we reported that the provider must:

• Ensure persons employed in the provision of the regulated activity receive the appropriate support, training, professional development, supervision and appraisal necessary to enable them to carry out their duties.

• Ensure care and treatment is provided in a safe way to patients.

• Establish effective systems and processes to ensure good governance in accordance with the fundamental standards of care.

At our inspection on 13 November 2017 we reported that the provider should:

• Ensure reception staff receive awareness training and written guidance about signs of sepsis and recognising deteriorating patients.

• Continue with efforts to review and monitor processes for QOF; auditing areas of high exception reporting.

• Undertake a formal risk assessment to ensure the emergency medicines are appropriate for the activities provided by the practice.

We rated the location as requires improvement for providing safe, effective and well led services.

This practice is now rated as Good overall. (Previous rating November 2017 – Requires Improvement)

The key questions at this inspection are rated as:

Are services safe? – Good

Are services effective? – Good

Are services well-led? - Good

At this June 2018 inspection we found:

  • The practice had clear systems to manage risk so that safety incidents were less likely to happen. When incidents did happen, the practice learned from them and improved their processes.
  • The practice routinely reviewed the effectiveness and appropriateness of the care it provided. It ensured that care and treatment was delivered according to evidence- based guidelines.
  • There was a strong focus on team working, overarching governance, and improvement at all levels of the organisation.
