Why we carried out this inspection:

This was a comprehensive inspection as part of our inspection programme. This was our first inspection of this location since it had changed provider in August 2020.

How we carried out the inspection:

Throughout the pandemic CQC has continued to regulate and respond to risk. However, considering the circumstances arising as a result of the pandemic, and in order to reduce risk, we have conducted our inspections differently.

This inspection was carried out in a way which enabled us to spend a minimum amount of time on site. This was with consent from the provider and in line with all data protection and information governance requirements.

This included:

  • Conducting staff interviews using video conferencing
  • Completing clinical searches on the practice’s patient records system and discussing findings with the provider
  • Reviewing patient records to identify issues and clarify actions taken by the provider
  • Requesting evidence from the provider
  • Speaking to patients using video conferencing and during the site visit
  • A short site visit

Our findings

We based our judgement of the quality of care at this service on a combination of:

  • what we found when we inspected
  • information from our ongoing monitoring of data about services and
  • information from the provider, patients, the public and other organisations.

We have rated this practice as Good overall

We found that:

  • The practice provided care in a way that kept patients safe and protected them from avoidable harm.
  • Patients received effective care and treatment which met their needs.
  • Staff dealt with patients with kindness and respect and involved them in decisions about their care.
  • The practice organised and delivered services to meet patients’ needs.
  • The way the practice was led and managed promoted the delivery of high-quality, personal care.

Whilst we found no breaches of regulations, the provider should:

  • Improve efforts to increase their childhood immunisation uptake.
  • Improve efforts to increase their cancer screening uptake.
  • Improve efforts to increase the number of identified carers within the practice population.

Details of our findings and the evidence supporting our ratings are set out in the evidence tables.
