16th March 2016 - During a routine inspection

Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out a desktop based review of Abney House Medical Centre on 16 March 2017. We found the practice to be good for providing safe services and it is rated as good overall.

We had previously conducted an announced comprehensive inspection of the practice on 5 November 2015. As a result of our findings during that visit, the practice was rated as good for being effective, caring, responsive and well led, and requires improvement for providing a safe service, which resulted in a rating of good overall. We found that the provider had breached two regulations of the Health and Social Care Act 2008: Regulation 12 (1) (2) (a) (b) safe care and treatment and Regulation 19 (3) (a) (b) fit and proper persons employed.

. The practice wrote to us to tell us what they would do to make improvements and meet the legal requirements.

We undertook a desktop based review on 16 March 2017 to check that the practice had followed their plan, and to confirm that they had met the legal requirements. This report only covers our findings in relation to those areas where requirements had not been met previously.

Our key findings on 16 March 2017 were as follows:

• The practice had undertaken fire risk safety assessments including an annual service of the fire alarm system.

• Adequate fire safety arrangements were now in place.

• A procedure for ensuring pre-employment checks for staff was in place and checks had been undertaken for all current members of staff.

• Non-clinical staff had received chaperone training.
