All Inspections

7 November 2013

During a routine inspection

We could not speak to people who used the service as there were no scheduled appointments on the day of our visit. We looked at patient feedback and found that most people received information to help them understand and consent to care. We saw evidence that the Consultant Surgeon worked within a valid consent policy and that people undergoing procedures always signed a consent form before treatment.

We found that people were positive about the service and the staff. One person had commented "The team are lovely and made me feel at ease on the day of my operation." Another person commented "The skill and attention shown to me has been great."

We saw evidence that the service had resuscitation equipment, that staff had up to date training to deal with emergency situations and that infection control practices were appropriate to prevent the spread of infection.

Medicines were stored and managed appropriately. The Practice Manager told us how patient feedback was collected to understand how the service performed. We saw evidence of clinical audit findings that were used to improve care outcomes after surgery.

We looked at training records that showed clinical staff, including the Consultant Surgeon, undertook appropriate learning activities.
