9th January 2018 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We carried out this announced inspection on 9 January 2018 under Section 60 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 as part of our regulatory functions. We planned the inspection to check whether the registered provider was meeting the legal requirements in the Health and Social Care Act 2008 and associated regulations. The inspection was led by a CQC inspector who was supported by a specialist dental adviser.

We told the NHS England area team and Healthwatch that we were inspecting the practice. They did not have any relevant information to share with us regarding this dental practice.

To get to the heart of patients’ experiences of care and treatment, we always ask the following five questions:

• Is it safe?

• Is it effective?

• Is it caring?

• Is it responsive to people’s needs?

• Is it well-led?

These questions form the framework for the areas we look at during the inspection.

On the day of inspection we received feedback from 49 patients. This information gave us a positive view of the practice.

The practice opening hours are: Monday: 9 am to 6 pm; Tuesday: 9 am to 6 pm;

16th April 2013 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

We spoke with two patients, observed two more patients during our visit and spoke with three members of staff.

Patients told us they were treated with dignity and respect when attending the practice.

The practice was on the first floor with a chair lift available for people who were unable to use the stairs. The stairs opened directly into the main reception area and staff said if patients required assistance with the stairs they could notify the receptionist.

Patients told us they received good information regarding their treatment which helped them make informed choices to meet their needs.

Patients and staff told us information about care and treatment was available for their use. this included leaflets such as oral hygine, practice information, prices and other information regarding mouth cancer and patient advice and liaison services. (PALs).The practice manager told us they encouraged patients to read the leaflets and take them away with them to ensure they understood the treatments that were offered.

The patients we spoke with commented on the cleanliness of the environment and protective equipment was always used.

We saw patient questionnaires had been completed in April 2012. These contained generally positive comments with strength and weaknesses of the surgery identified. We saw action had been taken to address the areas of weakness where required.
