29th May 2018 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We carried out this announced inspection on 29 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.

Our findings were:

The practice is owned by a partnership and as a condition of registration must have a person registered with the Care Quality Commission as the registered manager.

On the day of inspection we collected 38 CQC comment cards filled in by patients and spoke with two other patients.

During the inspection we spoke with three dentists, three dental nurses and one trainee dental nurse, one dental hygienist, two receptionists and the practice manager. We looked at practice policies and procedures and other records about how the service is managed.
