During a routine inspection
The practice was owned by the one dentist who provided treatment at the practice. Two further members of staff were employed, a registered dental nurse and a receptionist. As the practice was small, people were always seen by the same staff team. The patients we spoke with told us they valued seeing the same staff members at every visit and that the staff team were always helpful.
We found the practice to have good standards of infection control. Staff members employed by the practice were well trained and were confident to deliver their roles. Systems were in place for gathering, recording and evaluating information about the service to ensure patients received safe effective care, support and treatment. However, these were limited.
