  • Patients said they found it easy to make an appointment with a named GP and there was continuity of care, with urgent appointments available the same day.

  • 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.

The areas where the provider must make improvement are:

In addition the provider should:

  • Review the recording of minutes or actions from meetings held to ensure the dissemination of information to staff not present and to support shared learning.
