17th May 2017 - During an inspection to make sure that the improvements required had been made pdf icon

Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection of The Ash Surgery on 15 April 2015. The overall rating for the practice was Good. However, the practice was rated as Requires Improvement for providing safe services. The full comprehensive report on the April 2015 inspection can be found by selecting the ‘all reports’ link for The Ash Surgery on our website at www.cqc.org.uk.

This inspection was a desk-based review carried out on 17 May 2017 to confirm that the practice had carried out their plan to meet the legal requirements in relation to the breaches in regulation that we identified at our previous inspection on 15 April 2015. This report covers our findings in relation to those requirements and also additional improvements made since our last inspection.

Overall the practice is rated as good.

Our key findings were as follows:

  • Action had been taken to ensure that a record of the required staff recruitment information was maintained.

  • Action had been taken to ensure that the premises and equipment were safely maintained.

In addition, the practice had made the following improvements:

  • A system had been put in place to record the receipt and allocation of prescription pads.

  • Improvements had been made to the records of staff training to assist with the monitoring of training needs.

The areas where the provider should make improvements are:

  • The practice should review the actions from the health and safety and fire audits on a three monthly basis to ensure these are fully completed. The fire audit should also include a check on furnishings to ensure compliance with fire safety regulations.

  • In house weekly checks of the fire alarm and monthly checks of emergency lighting should be consistently undertaken.
