We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Vision Care Collective as part of our planned inspection programme.
Vision Care Collective is a private medical service in the Bristol area, situated in Nuffield Hospital providing a full range of eye surgical care, diagnostic and treatment services including ophthalmic surgery, medical treatment for ophthalmic conditions and diseases and diagnostic ophthalmic investigations. Vision Care Collective is operated from one registered location and two satellite sites. We did not visit the satellite sites as part of this inspection.
Vision Care Collective is led by a registered manager, who is a consultant ophthalmologist. A registered manager is a person who is registered with the Care Quality Commission to manage the service. Like registered providers, they are ‘registered persons’. Registered persons have legal responsibility for meeting the requirements in the Health and Social Care Act 2008 and associated Regulations about how the service is run.
