We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Heeley Green Surgery on 23 January 2018 as a new provider had registered with CQC to provide regulated activities from this location in September 2017.

At this inspection we found:

  • The practice had conducted safety risk assessments and there were action plans in place to address any risks identified.
  • The practice routinely reviewed the effectiveness and appropriateness of the care it provided. It ensured that care and treatment was delivered according to evidence -based guidelines.
  • Staff involved and treated patients with compassion, kindness, dignity and respect and patient feedback was positive about the care they received.
  • Patients found the appointment system easy to use and reported that they were able to access care when they needed it.
  • Structures, processes and systems to support good governance and management were clearly set out, understood and effective.
  • There was a clear leadership structure and staff told us they felt respected, supported and valued. They felt part of a team and were proud to work in the practice.
  • There was a strong focus on continuous learning and improvement at all levels of the organisation.

The areas where the provider should make improvements are:

  • Follow the significant event analysis (SEA) policy when reporting incidents.
  • Review how the clinical meetings are recorded to ensure all in attendance are on the record and review the structure of the notes to ensure all items discussed are captured.
  • Review the shared drive on the practice computer system to ensure the latest policies are accessible to staff.
  • Consider risk assessments in relation to the security of the premises.
  • Consider confidentiality at the front desk with regard to patients approaching the desk on an individual basis.
