During a routine inspection
People told us they felt the practice gave them sufficient information about various treatments to inform their decisions. People told us staff explained the risk and benefits of various treatments and provided details of the expected outcome.
The records showed us consent was sought from people appropriately before any treatment began. People's medical and dental health needs were accurately documented and updated at each visit.
We saw the practice was clean and hygienic and the staff followed appropriate infection control policies and procedures when carrying out treatment of patients.
Staff told us they felt well supported by management and were offered appropriate training at regular intervals. We saw staff were appraised annually and attended regular team meetings that informed them of new policies, procedures and ways of working.
