Overall inspection

Updated 28 April 2017

We carried out a follow- up inspection on 18 April 2017 at Adentist4Life Dental Practice

We had undertaken an announced comprehensive inspection of this service on 23 August 2016 as part of our regulatory functions where breach of legal requirements was found.

After the comprehensive inspection, the practice wrote to us to say what they would do to meet the legal requirements in relation to the breach.

We revisited Adentist4Life Dental Practice as part of this review and checked whether they had followed their action plan.

We reviewed the practice against one of the five questions we ask about services: is the service well-led? This report only covers our findings in relation to those requirements.

You can read the report from our last comprehensive inspection by selecting the 'all reports' link for Adentist4Life Dental Practice on our website at www.cqc.org.uk.

Background

This inspection was planned to check whether the practice was meeting the legal requirements and regulations associated with the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014.

This inspection was carried out to check that improvements to meet legal requirements planned by the practice after our comprehensive inspection on 23 August 2016 had been made.

The follow up inspection was led by a CQC inspector who had access to remoteadvice from a specialist advisor.

During our inspection visit, we checked that points described in the provider’s action plan had been implemented by looking at a range of documents such as risk assessments, staff files, policies, procedures and staff training. We also carried out a tour of the premises.

Our key findings were:

  • The practice had infection control procedures which reflected published guidance.
  • Staff knew how to deal with emergencies. Appropriate medicines and life-saving equipment were available.
  • The practice had systems to help them manage risk.
  • The practice had suitable safeguarding processes and staff knew their responsibilities for safeguarding adults and children.
  • The practice had thorough staff recruitment procedures.
  • The clinical staff provided patients’ care and treatment in line with current guidelines.
  • The practice had effective leadership. Staff felt involved and supported and worked well as a team.
  • The practice asked staff and patients for feedback about the services they provided.
