Delivering evidence-based care and treatment
The provider planned and delivered people’s treatment with them, including what was important and mattered to them. They did this in line with legislation and current clinical evidence-based good practice and standards.
Systems were in place to ensure the provider was up to date with evidence-based guidance and legislation. The records we saw demonstrated treatment was provided in line with current guidance.

People’s feedback we reviewed was positive regarding the outcomes from the treatment they had received.
Monitoring and improving outcomes
The provider routinely monitored peoples’ treatment and satisfaction to ensure their outcomes were positive.
People were advised about possible expected and unexpected side-effects following treatment and received appropriate follow up with access to telephone support when the service was closed.
Consent to care and treatment
We found evidence that the provider told people about their rights around consent and respected them when delivering their treatments.
Attendance at the clinic was initiated by people that sought the treatments provided by the service. People who expressed an interest in taking up treatment were given comprehensive information about the treatments available. They were given as much time as they needed to reach a decision on whether to progress with a particular treatment without any pressure to proceed.
For the regulated activities delivered, the service asked people to sign consent forms to indicate they understood the treatment fees and any risks involved.
