Background to this inspection

Updated 15 October 2015

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.

We carried out an announced, focused inspection on 08 September 2015. This inspection was carried out to check that improvements to meet legal requirements planned by the practice after our comprehensive inspection on 04 June 2015 had been made. We inspected the practice against one of the five questions we ask about services: is the service well-led? This is because the service was not previously meeting some legal requirements. At the previous, comprehensive inspection on 04 June 2015 we found that the practice was not well-led because the governance and audit systems were not being used effectively

The focused inspection was led by a CQC inspector who had access to remote advice from a specialist advisor.

During our inspection visit, we checked that points described in the action plan had been implemented by looking at a range of documents such as staff meeting minutes, risk assessments and audits. We also carried out a tour of the premises and spoke with members of staff.

Overall inspection

Updated 15 October 2015

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection of this service on 04 June 2015 as part of our regulatory functions. A 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 undertook this focused inspection on 08 September 2015 to check that they had followed their plan and to confirm that they now met legal requirements. This report only covers our findings in relation to those requirements.
