All Inspections

12 March 2013

During a routine inspection

We spoke with two patients who were both very pleased with the care they had received. One patient who was attending for his third visit said that the dentist was 'always explaining' and 'everything was fantastic'. Another patient who had attended for two years said that the practice was 'very tidy and professional with a positive friendly atmosphere'.

Two dentists explained to us how they assess the risk of disease amongst patients and this information was used to help to determine the most suitable interval for check up appointments.

We saw that there was a clear system in place which ensured that instruments were transferred, decontaminated, examined, sterilised and stored consistently. This shows that people were protected from the risk of infection because appropriate guidance had been followed.

We were told that staff appraisals were carried out annually and this was combined with a discussion about individual personal development plans for further training.

We saw that all patients records were securely filed and that patients computer records were password protected.
