5th April 2016 - During a routine inspection

Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection of Trent Vale Medical Practice on 4 May 2016. A breach of legal requirement was found and a requirement notice was issued. After the comprehensive inspection the practice sent us an action plan to say what they would do to meet

legal requirements in relation to:

• Regulation 12 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014. Safe Care and Treatment

We undertook a focused inspection on 31 October 2016. We did not visit the practice but reviewed information sent to us by the provider. The inspection was to check that the practice had followed their action plan and to confirm they now met legal requirements. This report only covers our findings in relation to those requirements. You can read the report from our last comprehensive inspection by selecting the ‘all reports’ link for Trent Vale Medical Practice on our website at www.cqc.org.uk.

Our key findings were as follows:

• The practice operated a safe, effective system for acting upon medicine safety alerts.

• The process for investigating and recording significant events was comprehensive, thorough and used regularly.

• The practice had an automated external defibrillator (AED) available if required in a serious medical emergency.

Overall the practice is rated as good overall and good in the safe domain. The change of rating in the safe domain means that the care the practice provides to patients whose circumstances make them vulnerable is now rated as outstanding. This recognises the improvements made to the quality of care provided by this service.
