All Inspections

During a routine inspection

People told us that staff explained all the procedures and treatments to them and respected their decisions about their treatment and care. Comments included; 'I always decide what to do after talking to the dentist. He explains everything to me and answers my questions clearly', 'I can talk to them if I don't understand' and 'you know how much you are paying for treatment, the costs are explained to you and they are in the brochure and on the wall in the waiting areas.'

People who used the service told us they were happy with the care and treatment they received at the practice. One person said, "they (practice staff) are very nice, not a bad one amongst them ',' I'm very happy with my care, me and my family have been coming here years and never had any problems' and 'they (staff) are brilliant with children, no problems at all.'

The provider had an effective recruitment and selection procedure in place to ensure that staff were appropriately employed.

We found people received care and treatment in a clean environment with infection control measures in place to minimise the risk of infection. People we spoke with told us the practice was always clean and tidy.

The provider had an appropriate system in place for gathering, recording and evaluating information about the quality and safety of care the service provides. People who used the service and their representatives were asked for their views about their care and treatment.
