During a routine inspection
All the patients we spoke with at the practice told us the dentist and nurse checked with them whether they were happy to receive treatment. They said that the dentist always talked to them and explained what they were going to do.
A comprehensive recording system was available for the prescribing and recording of the medicines and drugs used in conscious sedation and other areas of clinical practise. This meant that appropriate arrangements were in place in relation to the recording of medicine.
Hilltop Dental Practice was located in a purpose built premises on one floor. The design, layout and security of the premises were fit for purpose and met the needs of patients who received care and treatment at the practice.
