15th November 2013 - During an inspection to make sure that the improvements required had been made pdf icon

At our last inspection on 17 May 2013 we found that people were not fully protected from the risk of infection because there were not appropriate procedures and equipment in place to protect against the risk of cross infection. We also found that staff were not receiving regular training regarding infection control. At this inspection on 15 November 2013 we found that appropriate procedures were in place to check the decontamination equipment, damaged furniture and fixtures had been replaced, and all staff had received infection control training.

At our last inspection on 17 May 2013 we found that medication used for sedation was not stored securely. At this inspection on 15 November 2013 we found that all medication was securely stored and only staff that were trained to administer the medication had access to it.

17th May 2013 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

During our inspection we spoke with five patients. They all said they were happy with the quality of the services they received, and that staff were helpful and friendly, polite, provided them with appointments at convenient times and explained their treatment options. We found that people's needs were assessed and their care and treatment was planned and delivered in line with their individual care plans. Patients had made positive comments in feedback surveys, for example that “staff explained everything to me well and kept me calm” and “best dentist ever”.

Staff understood and followed the safeguarding policy.

There were effective systems in place to check on the quality of services and to ensure that when people made suggestions or raised issues staff responded and made changes to improve the quality of the environment and the patient experience.

During our inspection we found that patient and treatments areas were visually clean, but some daily checks on decontamination equipment were not recorded and not all the actions on the provider's infection control action plan had been completed, for example not all staff were appropriately trained in infection control and some equipment did not meet national good practice standards.

We also found that sedation drugs were not being kept safely or securely, and as required by national legislation and the practice's medicine policy.
