All Inspections

18 July 2013

During an inspection looking at part of the service

A routine inspection took place in February 2013 which identified patients were not protected from the risk of infection because appropriate guidance had not been followed by the surgery.

These concerns were judged to have had a minor impact on people who used the service. The provider sent us an action plan in April 2013 and told us what they would do to address these concerns.

A follow up review took place on 18 July 2013. We saw that the providers action plan to address the areas of concern had been completed and signed off. The service was now compliant in this outcome.

11 February 2013

During a routine inspection

The Lodge Dental Practice had three surgeries, two dentists and two part time hygienists. Many of the patients had attended the practice for many years and told us they were very happy with the treatment they had received. They all commented that they had been able to discuss their treatment with their dentist and were given advice on how to maintain their dental health at home. They understood the charges that they had to pay or the monthly dental insurance scheme they used.

Staff had been at the practice for a number of years and were motivated and supported in their practice. Staff were encouraged to maintain their Continuous Professional Development (CPD).
