The practice is open Monday to Friday from 8.30am-5.30pm. The practice facilities include two consultation rooms, a reception and waiting area, decontamination room and a staff room. The premises are wheelchair accessible and have facilities for wheelchair users including an accessible toilet.

We spoke with three patients during the inspection. Patient feedback was positive about the service. They told us that staff were polite and helpful and always treated them with respect. They described the service as professional. Information given to them was appropriate and clear and when relevant information about fees was made clear before they commenced treatment.

  • Patients were involved in their care and treatment planning so they could make informed decisions.
  • There were effective processes in place to reduce and minimise the risk and spread of infection.

12th August 2013 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We spoke with six people who use the service, the dental nurse, receptionist, hygienist and one dentist during this inspection.

People told us that they were satisfied with the services provided and said "the dentist takes time to tell me about the treatment options and costs", "it's nice here, the dentist explains things to me", "it's always clean" and "the dentist always wears gloves". People said staff respected their privacy and that although the reception and waiting area was open, staff did not speak to them in front of others but directed them into the treatment room for private discussions.

Staff were happy to work at the surgery. They told us they had the necessary checks before they started work and had the training and support they needed to do their job. Staff said one of the things they did well was give patients the information they needed to understand the treatment options available to them. Staff also said that being in a small practice was a positive experience for both staff and people who use the service.

We saw that the treatment room, decontamination room and reception area were clean and tidy. We observed that reception staff welcomed people and made sure health information was updated before they saw the dentist or hygienist. The dentist took time to speak with people about what was being done and what they needed to do to maintain thier oral hygiene.
