During a routine inspection
Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice
We carried out a desk based review for Bretton Medical Practice on 22 September 2016. This was to follow up on actions we asked the provider to take after our announced comprehensive inspection on 1 February 2016.
During the inspection in February 2016, we identified that the provider must improve;
- health and safety risk assessments of the environment
- procedures for checking incoming patient health information records
- the role of the infection control lead and the scope and frequency of infection control audits
- documented care plans for patients at risk of unplanned hospital admissions that can be accessed by other health professionals.
The practice wrote to tell us about the action they would take to comply with Regulation 12 Safe care and treatment. We reviewed the evidence they sent us and found the improvements had been completed.
The overall rating for the practice is good. You can read our previous report by selecting the ‘all reports' link for on our website at www.cqc.org.uk
