16th January 2014 - During a routine inspection
![]() On the day of our inspection we spoke with six patients. All of them were complimentary about the practice. Two patients told us, "It is most satisfactory." Another patient told us, "I like it. It's always clean. I like that there is a separate waiting room for parents with children. I like that the GP takes on board what I say. They don't rush me. They give advice about what I can do to stay well or get better." Another patient also told us that the GPs they saw listened and added, "The information they give has been helpful." Three patients told us that when their GP discussed treatments they would require at hospital they had always offered a choice of hospitals so that they could make an informed choice about which hospital to go to. We found that patient's views and experiences had been taken into account by the practice. Patients had opportunities to provide feed comments using suggestions cards and the practice had an active and influential patient action group that was valued and listened to by the practice. We saw that care and treatment was provided in a clean environment because the practice had effective cleaning and infection control procedures. Patients were safe because the practice had very effective adults and children safeguarding procedures about which all staff had received training. The practice had well embedded quality monitoring systems, a clear governance structure and trained staff that ensured the practice was well run.
