19th April 2017 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We carried out this announced inspection on 19 April 2017, 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.

People using the service told us in questionnaires returned that they were satisfied with the treatment they had received and way it was provided. "Staff courteous, polite, friendly, dental care excellent and excellent hygiene". "Very friendly staff, my son loves it here".

The procedure for consultation and treatment was fully explained including the cost of treatment. People were also told about any risks that might arise from treatments chosen.

They felt treated with dignity, respect and had received consultations and treatment in a way that maintained their privacy.

People using the service were aware of the complaints procedure.

They did not comment on the practice infection control systems or staffing numbers. They did comment that they thought the practice was kept clean, tidy, felt safe using the service and the dentists and team were excellent.

We saw that people received enough information to make informed decisions about their treatment in a number of ways including verbal, written and visual.

There was a robust complaints process that was followed and infection prevention procedures were in place with people receiving treatment in a clean environment.

There were also enough qualified and competent staff to meet people's needs.
