Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection of the practice on 3 March 2016. A breach of legal requirements was found. After the comprehensive inspection the practice wrote to us to say what they would do to meet the legal requirements in relation to the breach of Regulation 12.

We undertook a focussed inspection on 18 October 2016 to check that they had followed their action plan and to confirm they now met their legal requirements. This report only covers our findings in relation to those requirements.

  • There was an open and transparent approach to safety and an effective system in place for reporting and recording significant events.

  • The practice had improved the governance framework in place to support the delivery of the strategy and good quality care. For example, systems for assessing and monitoring risks and the quality of the service provision.

  • There was strong leadership within the dispensary and we saw evidence of safe and effective systems and processes in place

The areas where the provider should make improvements are:

  • Continue to embed the new system for significant events and ensure meeting minutes include discussions and decisions made.
