7th February 2017 - During a routine inspection

Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out a focused desk based inspection of Crabbs Cross Surgery on 7 February 2017 to check that action had been taken since our previous inspection on 25 November 2015. At the inspection in November 2015, the practice was rated as good overall but rated as requires improvement for the safe domain.

We found that the practice required improvement in the safe domain due to a breach of regulation relating to safe care and treatment. This was because:

• The practice had not undertaken a Legionella risk assessment, therefore the risk to patients and staff of infection by the Legionella bacteria had not been established.

On 7 February 2017 we reviewed the information the practice submitted to us to ensure that they had followed their action plan and to confirm that they now met legal requirements. This report covers our findings in relation to those requirements. You can read the report from our last comprehensive inspection of Crabbs Cross Surgery on our website at www.cqc.org.uk.

Our key findings for this inspection were as follows:

The provider had made improvements:

• They had commissioned the services of an external contractor to carry out Legionella testing, and implemented the actions recommended from the assessment.

The practice is now rated good for safe services.
