Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice
We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Portobello Medical Centre on 12 May 2016. Overall the practice is rated as good.
Our key findings across all the areas we inspected were as follows:
There was an open and transparent approach to safety and an effective system in place for reporting and recording significant events.
Risks to patients were assessed and well managed.
Clinical audits had been carried out, and
one of these was a completed second cycle audit demonstrating quality improvement in patient outcomes.
Staff assessed patients’ needs and delivered care in line with current evidence based guidance. Staff had been trained to provide them with the skills, knowledge and experience to deliver effective care and treatment.
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. Improvements were made to the quality of care as a result of complaints and concerns.
Patients said they were able to make an appointment with a named GP and 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.
The provider was aware of and complied with the requirements of the duty of candour.
The areas where the provider should make improvement are:
Continue to complete clinical audits through the full audit cycle to further demonstrate where the improvements made are implemented and monitored to improve patient outcomes.
Review the system for the identification of carers to ensure all carers have been identified and provided with support.
Advertise in the reception area that translation services are available.
Update the practice’s policy on notifiable incidents in line with 2014 regulations.
