Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Adshall Road Medical Practice on 12 October 2016. Overall the practice is rated as good.

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

  • The GP partnership had experienced changes, both expected and unexpected in the last 12 months and this had caused some challenges for the practice.
  • 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 assessed and well managed.
  • Staff assessed patients’ needs and delivered care in line with current evidence based guidance. Staff had been trained to provide them 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 usually found it easy to get through to the practice on the telephone and could get an appointment with a named GP if they were willing to wait a couple of days. The GPs provided a telephone appointment service which patients said they liked.
  • The GPs provided a telephone triage service for urgent appointments. These were available each day.
  • 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.
  • The provider was aware of and complied with the requirements of the duty of candour.

The areas where the provider should make improvement are:

  • Establish a programme of regular clinical audit and re-audit.
