Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Kensington Road Surgery on 24 August 2016. The overall rating for the practice was good but required improvement for providing effective services. The full comprehensive report on the 24 August 2016 inspection can be found by selecting the ‘all reports’ link for Kensington Road Surgery on our website at www.cqc.org.uk.

This inspection was an announced focused inspection carried out on 18 July 2017 to confirm that the practice had carried out their plan to make the improvements required that we identified in our previous inspection on 24 August 2016. This report covers our findings in relation to those requirements and also additional improvements made since our last inspection.

The practice is now rated as good in all areas.

Our key findings were as follows:

• The practice had reviewed their recall process for the management of long term conditions and introduced a monitoring process to review ongoing progress and achievement.
• The GPs had effective systems for dealing with pathology results and a written protocol had been introduced.
• The practice had introduced an audit programme and tracker demonstrating changes and improvements in care.
• All staff were aware of the fire and safeguarding procedures and had received the appropriate training. There was a system to ensure training was updated within the required timescales.
• All staff were aware of the location of emergency equipment and procedures and a fire drill had been carried out.
• The complaints policy had been updated and made available for patients to view.
• The practice had reviewed their patient list and identified and made contact with patients who may have been carers and as a result increased the carers’ register from 55 to 79. There was a carers’ board in the waiting area providing information of local carers’ support.
