2nd February 2016 - During a routine inspection
Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice
We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Thurleigh Road Practice on 2 February 2016. Overall the practice is rated as good.
Our key findings across all the areas we inspected were as follows:
We saw one area of outstanding practice;
The practice recognised that their relatively high proportion of children and young people, particularly those aged under 5, were also frequent service users. This prompted the practice to set up and run parenting courses for local families. The practice has seen a reduction in out of hours Accident & Emergency (A&E) department admissions since the courses started, prompting the local CCG to roll out the courses to other practices.
Areas where the practice should improve;
The practice should review ways to improve patient access to their named or preferred GP.
The practice should ensure more carers are identified from the patient list.
The practice should ensure more patients diagnosed with asthma receive an annual review of their condition.
