Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice
We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Tudor Medical Centre on 1 August 2016. Overall the practice is rated as good.
Our key findings across all the areas we inspected were as follows:
There was an effective system in place for reporting and recording significant events.
Staff understood and fulfilled their responsibilities to raise concerns and to report incidents and near misses.
Risks to patients were assessed and well managed.
Staff assessed patients’ needs and delivered care in line with current evidence based guidance. Staff had been trained to provide them with the skills, knowledge and experience to deliver effective care and treatment.
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. Verbal complaints were not monitored.
Most 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. However some patients told us that it was not always easy to get an appointment in a timely way.
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 practice was involved in local initiatives and was in the process of merging with a local practice which would increase the size of the practice population it served.
