During a routine inspection

Information about patient's experiences of One Health Care Group at The Claremont Hospital was gained by reviewing completed patient satisfaction surveys and other relevant documentation. We also spoke with the company director and two consultant surgeons, one of whom was also one of the medical directors of the company.

We found that patients had consented to and been involved in decisions about their care and treatment. Patient comments about consent within satisfaction surveys were positive. For example, one response stated, 'all the points relating to my operation were explained in a clear and professional manner.'

Our review of patient satisfaction surveys and the records of six patients evidenced that care and treatment was planned and delivered in a way that ensured patient safety and welfare.

We spoke with two consultant surgeons about safeguarding. Each consultant had an awareness of the different types of abuse and was clear about the action they would take to safeguard patients.

We found that arrangements were in place to ensure that surgeons received further training and professional development opportunities. Clear records about re-validation were in place. This is the process which ensures that clinicians have met the necessary standards and are fit to practise.

We saw that policies and procedures were in place to investigate complaints.

During a routine inspection

Due to the nature of this service we did not speak directly to people who used services, however, we looked at surveys carried out by the provider. All of the surveys we looked were positive about the service they had received from One Health Group at the Claremont Hospital. One person wrote 'my experiences have been first class and above', and another said that 'the staff at One Health Group were always so helpful and polite'
