Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Magna Group Practice - Valley Health Centre on 23 November 2016. The overall rating for the practice was requires improvement. The full comprehensive report on the November 2016 inspection can be found by selecting the ‘all reports’ link for Magna Group Practice - Valley Health Centre on our website at www.cqc.org.uk.

This inspection was an announced focused inspection carried out on 27 July 2017 to confirm that the practice had carried out their plan to meet the legal requirements in relation to the breaches in regulations that we identified in our previous inspection on 23 November 2016. This report covers our findings in relation to those requirements and also additional improvements made since our last inspection.

Overall the practice is now rated as Good.

Our key findings were as follows:

  • Systems for the management of safety alerts had been improved and this had ensured alerts were actioned in a timely manner. A record of actions taken in respect of the alerts had been developed and maintained.

  • Action had been taken in respect of blinds and blind cords to minimise the risk of serious injury due to entanglement.

  • Infection prevention and control (IPC) processes and monitoring systems had been improved.

  • Stock control processes had been improved to ensure equipment does not exceed the expiry date.

  • Improved systems for the management of blank prescription forms and security arrangements had been implemented in line with NHS guidance.

  • Improved systems had been implemented to ensure the cold chain was maintained in vaccine storage fridges in line with Public Health England guidance.

  • The practice recruitment policy and procedure had been implemented and required recruitment checks had been completed.

  • Storage arrangements for oxygen cylinders had been improved and oxygen cylinders were safely and securely stored.

  • The provider had obtained copies of health and safety risk assessments undertaken by the landlord for the Wath branch site and had assured themselves that required health and safety tasks were being undertaken by the landlord.

The provider had also made the following improvements since the last inspection:

  • Clinical staff had undertaken the relevant level of safeguarding training.

  • Emergency equipment had been checked at least weekly.

  • Systems for updating patient’s' medicines following changes by secondary care providers had been reviewed and improved.

  • Frequency of meetings had been improved and minutes of meetings were more detailed.

  • Chaperone training had been provided for all non-clinical staff.

  • Up to date fire risk assessments were in place.

However, there were also areas of practice where the provider should make improvements.

  • All new employees should undergo a pre-employment health assessment, which should include a review of immunisation needs.
