Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice
We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Market Weighton on the 6 and 7 July 2017. 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 a system in place for reporting and recording significant events.
The practice had clearly defined and embedded systems to minimise risks to patient safety.
Staff were aware of current evidence based guidance. Staff had been trained to provide them with the skills and knowledge to deliver effective care and treatment.
Results from the national GP patient survey showed patients were treated with compassion, dignity and respect and 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 and concerns.
Patients told us 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. Some patients commented that it was difficult to access the Dr First triage system.
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.
There were areas of practice where the provider needs to make improvements.
Importantly the provider should:
Monitor safeguarding training for GPs.
Implement a process for recording that actions agreed at multi-disciplinary team meetings had been followed up.
Review the process for informing patients of blood results by the receptionists.
Implement a process to gain regular feedback from patients and staff regarding the Dr First triage system.
