During a routine inspection
We carried out a comprehensive inspection of Laver Consultancy Limited on 19 September 2023. It was the first time we inspected this service.
Laver Consultancy Limited is an independent health provider who offers diagnostic imaging through sonography to the general public.
Before the inspection we reviewed information we had about the location, including information we received and available intelligence. The inspection was announced at short notice.

- Staff worked for the benefit of patients, supported them to make decisions about their care, and had access to good information.
- Staff treated patients with compassion and kindness and respected their privacy and dignity.
- The service planned care to meet the needs of local people and made it easy for people to give feedback. People could access the service when they needed it and did not have to wait too long for treatment.
- The service used reliable information systems. Staff were focused on the needs of patients receiving care. The service engaged well with patients to plan and manage services.
