Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice
We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Dr J Israel on 21 April 2016. Overall the practice is rated as good.
Our key findings across all the areas we inspected were as follows:
There was an open and transparent approach to safety and an effective system in place for reporting and recording significant events.
Risks to patients were assessed and well managed.
Staff assessed patients’ needs and delivered care in line with current evidence based guidance, and staff had been trained to provide them with the skills, knowledge and experience to deliver effective care and treatment.
Data from the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) showed patient outcomes were mostly below average in 2014/2015 for several health indicators, but the practice had addressed this and made some improvements in 2015/2016.
Patients said they were treated with compassion, dignity and respect and they were involved in their care and decisions about their treatment.
Information about services and how to complain was available and easy to understand. Improvements were made to the quality of care as a result of complaints.
The majority of patients said they found it easy to make an appointment with a named GP and there was continuity of care, with urgent appointments available the same day.
The practice had good facilities and was well equipped to treat patients and meet their needs.
There was a clear leadership structure and staff felt supported by management. The practice proactively sought feedback from staff and patients, which it acted on.
The provider was aware of and complied with the requirements of the duty of candour.
The areas where the provider should make improvements are:
Ensure QOF performance is continuously monitored and improvements are made.
Ensure translation services are advertised in the waiting area, in a format patients can understand.
