1st August 2013 - During a routine inspection
We were able to speak with seven patients who were in the waiting room when we visited. All of the patients confirmed that the doctor and the staff always explained what they were going to do and were happy with the service they received. However there was a recurrent theme in patient’s responses with regards to them being able to make an appointment. We did not see any circumstances where confidentially was not maintained. Most of the patients we spoke with confirmed that they felt confident that the doctor understood their condition. One patient told us, “The process for referral to secondary care is good and effective.” One of the GP’s told us, “It is the best practice I have ever worked in”. We found that the practice was clean and tidy. There were adequate disabled facilities and all treatment/consulting rooms were on the same level. All rooms were designed to maintain a patient's dignity and privacy whilst being treated. We saw that staff had received appraisals annually which demonstrated that the competence of staff were assessed and discussed. Members of staff we spoke with told us that there was protected training time and confirmed they had received updated training. The practice participated in the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) system used to monitor the quality of services in GP practices.

We reviewed the information available to us about James Street Group Practice on 14 May 2019. We did not find evidence of significant changes to the quality of service being provided since the last inspection. As a result, we decided not to inspect the surgery at this time. We will continue to monitor this information about this service throughout the year and may inspect the surgery when we see evidence of potential changes.
