During a routine inspection
Information seen on patient files indicated that people only gave their consent to any proposed treatment once they were clear about the options available to them. Once a decision was made, a consent to treatment form was signed.
People's needs were appropriately assessed and care and treatment was planned and delivered in line with their individual needs. In the patient file we looked at we saw that appropriate and detailed documentation was in place.
We found that a high standard of hygiene and cleanliness was maintained throughout the premises with daily and weekly checklists in place for general clinic areas and theatre set up and shutdown. All staff had received infection control training.
During our tour of the premises we found all parts to be in an excellent state of repair. Records were in place to indicate that equipment servicing and maintenance checks were being maintained.
