We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Dr Mokashi.

At this inspection we found:

  • The practice had clear systems to manage risk so that safety incidents were less likely to happen. When incidents did happen, the practice learned from them and improved their processes.
  • The practice had systems in place to review and assess significant events and complaints, with annual reviews taking place.
  • Patient Group Directions (PGDs), which allow nurses to administer medicines in line with legislation, had not been updated to reflect changes in staff. However, this was resolved on the day of the inspection.
  • 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.
  • Clinical audits were effective and maintained by clinicians to drive patient education and to follow national guidance.
  • Staff involved and treated patients with compassion, kindness, dignity and respect.
  • Patients found the appointment system easy to use and reported that they were able to access care when they needed it.
  • There was a strong focus on continuous learning and improvement at all levels of the organisation.
  • The practice had an established and well attended Patient Participation Group (PPG).
  • Patients found the appointment system easy to use and most reported that they were able to access care when they needed it.

The areas where the provider should make improvements are:

  • Improve the electronic audit trail for responding to missed appointments of vulnerable children and adults.
  • Develop an uncollected repeat prescription process.
  • Formalise training requirements for GPs in immunisations and vaccinations.
