During a routine inspection

Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Rustlings Road Surgery on 20 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 had been trained to provide patients with 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. Improvements were made to the quality of care as a result of complaints and concerns.
  • 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.
  • The practice had satisfactory facilities and was equipped to treat patients and meet their needs.
  • Staff felt supported by management. The practice sought feedback from staff and patients, which it acted on.
  • The provider was aware of and complied with the requirements of the duty of candour.

The areas where the provider must make improvement are:

  • Introduce a rolling programme of clinical audit and re-audit to improve patient outcomes and services.
  • The practice had a number of policies and procedures to govern activity, however the Disclosure and Barring (DBS) policy was missing and all policies needed updating to include a front cover sheet and implementation and review dates.
