Redcliffe Dental Practice

During an assessment under our new approach

We carried out this announced on-site assessment on 8 October 2024. We found the practice had met regulations. There was effective leadership and a culture of continuous improvement. Patients were treated with dignity and respect and at the time of our assessment, could access care, support and treatment when required. Patients’ care and treatment was provided in line with current guidance and infection control procedures were in place. The practice had systems to manage risks. Recruitment procedures reflected current legislation. However, these were not consistently adhered to. Improvements should be made to ensure medicines and prescriptions were managed in line with current guidance. Redcliffe Dental Practice is in Neston and provides NHS and private dental care and treatment for adults and children. There was portable ramp access to the practice and car parking spaces were available near the practice. The practice had 5 treatment rooms. During the assessment we spoke with 2 dentists, 2 dental nurses, 1 dental therapist, and the practice manager.
