Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at The Village Medical Centre on 8 December 2015 and at this time the practice was rated overall as good. However breaches of a legal requirement were also found. After the comprehensive inspection the practice wrote to us and told us that they would take action to meet the following legal requirements set out in the Health and Social Care Act (HSCA) 2008:

Regulation 12 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulation 2010, Safe care and treatment.

On 13 April 2016 we carried out a focused review of this service under section 60 of the Health and Social care Act 2008 as part of our regulatory functions. The review was carried out to check whether the provider had completed the improvements needed and identified during the comprehensive review on 8 December 2015. This report only covers our findings in relation to those requirements. The report from our last comprehensive inspection can be read by selecting the ‘all reports’ link for The Village Medical Centre on our website at cqc.org.uk

The findings of this review were as follows:

  • The practice had addressed the issues identified during the previous inspection.

  • Effective systems were now in place to ensure accurate recording of medicine fridge temperatures and to ensure the correct procedures were followed if the temperatures fall outside of the required range for temperature sensitive medicines.

  • Staff had received training in safe storage of temperature sensitive medicines.

  • Effective systems were now in place to monitor the fridge recordings to ensure medicines were stored safely.

  • Other recommended actions had been taken to improve care and services.
