All Inspections

28 November 2013

During a routine inspection

We spoke with two people on the day of our visit, and three further people over the telephone following our visit. All of the people we spoke with were complimentary about the care that they received at Beach Road Dental Care. Patients told us that they were involved in decisions that were made about their care. They said that they understood the choices available to them because the dentist at the practice took time to explain treatments to them.

One patient said, "The staff here are really nice, they always do their best to make me feel relaxed".

Another patient said, "They treat me well. The staff are very nice".

We found that the practice provided clear information for people to make informed choices

about their care. We found that the practice had clear procedures to ensure that people's

safety and welfare were protected.

We found that the practice took infection control seriously. We also found that staff had been trained to identify signs of abuse and understood the procedures to follow where they suspected abuse may have occurred.

We found that the practice had procedures in place to monitor and ensure that the quality of the service that people were receiving was of a good standard.
