During a routine inspection
We looked at patient records. We found these included treatment plans, medical histories, visit dates and the treatments patients had received.
We spoke with three members of staff, including the dental practitioners, who said they had received training in the protection of vulnerable children and adults, known as safeguarding. We saw that the provider had a policy in place in this regard and staff had signed to say they had read the policy.
Staff told us they were supported to carry out their roles. They told us that they had opportunities for continuing professional development (CPD). We looked at staff records and saw there were CPD records linked to their General Dental Council Registration (GDC).
We saw that the service had the appropriate policies in place to manage and monitor the quality of the service provided. These included policies for dealing with emergencies.
