5th March 2019 - During a routine inspection
![]() Window to the Womb Reading is operated by Divinity Ltd and operates under a franchise agreement with Window to The Womb (Franchise) Ltd. The service provides diagnostic pregnancy ultrasound services to self-funding women across Berkshire.
The service provides diagnostic imaging for children aged 16 years to 18 years and adults over the age of 18 years. It is registered to provide the regulated activity of diagnostic and screening procedures.
We inspected this service using our comprehensive inspection methodology. We carried out a short notice announced inspection on 5th March 2019. We gave staff two working days’ notice that we were coming to inspect to ensure the availability of the registered manager and clinics.
To get to the heart of patients’ experiences of care and treatment, we ask the same five questions of all services: are they safe, effective, caring, responsive to people's needs, and well-led? Where we have a legal duty to do so we rate services’ performance against each key question as outstanding, good, requires improvement or inadequate.
Throughout the inspection, we took account of what people told us and how the provider understood and complied with the Mental Capacity Act 2005.
