During a routine inspection

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Chaddesley Surgery on 11 March 2019 as part of our inspection programme. The practice was previously inspected in December 2014 and rated good.

We based our judgement of the quality of care at this service on a combination of:

•what we found when we inspected

•information from our ongoing monitoring of data about services and

•information from the provider, patients, the public and other organisations.

We rated the practice as outstanding for providing caring services:

We received 77 comment cards from the CQC which were all very positive about the practice.

The results from the national patient survey were all well above the CCG and national average. The practice was ranked 3rd out of 65 practice in Worcestershire for the percentage of people who had a good experience making their last appointment and 2nd place for the percentage of people who were happy with the appointment times available. Overall they were ranked 9th out 65 practices in Worcestershire.

The practice dedicated their own time to running the dementia café and supporting patients and carers.

We have rated this practice as good overall and good for all population groups:

However, there was also an area of practice where the provider needs to make improvements.

The provider should:

  • Record the learning from near misses in the dispensary to ensure it is embedded.

During a routine inspection

Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection of this practice on 4 December 2014. Overall the practice is rated as good.

We found the practice to be good for providing safe, effective, caring and responsive services and for being well-led. We found the practice provided good care to older people, people with long term conditions, families, children and young people, the working age population and those recently retired. We found the practice provided good care to patients in vulnerable circumstances and to patients experiencing poor mental health.

Our key findings were as follows:

  • Every patient we received feedback from was complimentary about the care, treatment and overall experience at Chaddesley Surgery.
  • The practice team ensured safe care for patients by identifying potential risks in their systems and clinical processes and taking steps to prevent incidents.
  • GPs worked with patients and their families and carers to ensure that they understood how treatments could support their health and that they received the most appropriate care for their needs.
  • The practice team was well-led and well managed in all areas. They acted on feedback from the local Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), their own staff and on the views of patients.

We saw the following outstanding practice :

  • Patients with a range of mental health needs described the perseverance of the GPs in locating a treatment option which provided them with the best chance of recovery. The GPs supported patients through treatment, reviewed their progress regularly over time and provided emergency care and treatment when they needed it.
