This inspection was an announced desktop inspection carried out on Monday 15 May 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 15 September 2016. This report covers our findings in relation to those requirements.

Overall the practice is now rated as good.

Our key findings were as follows:

• Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks were in place for all administrative staff who acted as chaperones.
• Prescriptions were tracked through the practice to comply with NHS Protect Security of prescription forms guidance 2013.

• An infection prevention and control audit had been carried out at the branch surgery.
