Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out a comprehensive inspection at Rahman Practice on 15 September 2015. At this inspection the practice was rated as good overall and in particular rated as good for providing effective, caring, responsive and well-led services and requires improvement for providing safe services.

During the inspection on 15 September 2015 we found that;

  • Recruitment checks prior to staff members starting their employment had not been obtained consistently. For example; proof of identification, references, qualifications, registration with the appropriate professional body and the appropriate checks through the ‘Disclosure and Barring Service’ (DBS) when needed.

  • The practice did not have access to emergency oxygen for patients.

  • The practice had not reviewed and brought up to date the practice policies and procedures for example; safeguarding and infection control to ensure they were aligned with current best practice guidelines and legislation.

  • The practice had not undertaken an infection control audit nor provided relevant training for their staff.

The practice was issued with a requirement notice for improvement.

Following this inspection the practice sent us information that outlined the actions they intended to take to improve, and the date they would be implemented. We were then provided with evidence that the practice had implemented the required improvements.

To follow-up on our previous inspection and ensure the practice had made the required improvements, we carried out a desk-based inspection of the Rahman Practice on 24 February 2016, based on the information they sent us after the inspection.

Our key findings during this desk-based follow-up inspection were as follows:

  • The practice provided evidence of their recruitment checks, their revised recruitment policy and induction procedure.

  • Evidence that patients had access to emergency oxygen and a newly purchased defibrillator (which provides an electric shock to stabilise a life threatening heart rhythm).

  • Reviewed and updated practice policies were sent to us showing they now met current best practice guidance and legislation. They also identified the practice lead for example; the infection control lead and the safeguarding lead.

  • The practice provided evidence of regular infection control risk assessment audits and that relevant staff had received training in infection control procedures.

  • Chaperones had received training and DBS checks.

We were therefore satisfied the provider had made all of the improvements identified as a result of the inspection on 15 September 2015.
