Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Mount Road Surgery on 23 June 2016. The overall rating for the practice was good, with a requires improvement rating for the key question of safe and we issued a requirement notice for breaches of Regulation 19 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 (Fit and proper Persons employed). The full comprehensive report on the June 2016 inspection can be found by selecting the ‘all reports’ link for Mount Road Surgery on our website at www.cqc.org.uk.

This inspection was a desk-based review carried out on 24 October 2017 to confirm that the practice had carried out their plan to meet the legal requirements in relation to the breach identified in the requirement notice.

Overall the practice is now rated as good, with the previous rating of requires improvement for the key question of safe updated to a rating of good.

Our key findings were as follows:

  • All clinical staff and those who carried out chaperone duties had DBS checks in place, and the practice’s recruitment policy had been updated to reflect this was part of its recruitment procedure (DBS checks identify whether a person has a criminal record or is on an official list of people barred from working in roles where they may have contact with children or adults who may be vulnerable).

  • Staff had annual appraisals to support them in performing their duties.

Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection on 23 June 2016. Overall the practice is rated as good.

Our key findings across all the areas we inspected were as follows:

  • There was an open and transparent approach to safety and an effective system in place for reporting and recording significant events.
  • Risks to patients were generally assessed and well managed.
  • Staff assessed patients’ needs and delivered care in line with current evidence based guidance. Staff had the skills, knowledge and experience to deliver effective care and treatment.
  • Patients said they were treated with compassion, dignity and respect and they were involved in their care and decisions about their treatment.
  • Information about services and how to complain was available and easy to understand.
  • The practice had good facilities and was well equipped to treat patients and meet their needs.
  • There was a clear leadership structure and staff felt supported by management. The practice proactively sought feedback from staff and patients, which it acted on.

There were areas of practice where the provider must make improvements:

  • Ensure documented evidence of staff appraisals and training is available.
  • Ensure the recruitment of all staff includes all the necessary employment checks and records are kept of these.
  • Ensure all relevant staff have a Disclosure and Barring Service check.
