Surbiton Smile Centre

Updated 13 April 2017

This inspection was planned to check whether the practice was meeting the legal requirements and regulations associated with the Health and Social Care Act 2008.

We carried out an announced, focused inspection on 08 March 2017. This inspection was carried out to check that improvements to meet legal requirements planned by the practice after our comprehensive inspection on 25 November 2016 had been made.

We inspected the practice against one of the five questions we ask about services: is the service well-led? This is because the service was not previously meeting some legal requirements.

The focused inspection was led by a CQC inspector who had access to remote advice from a dental specialist advisor.

During our inspection visit, we checked that points described in the provider’s action plan had been implemented by looking at a range of documents such as risk assessments and audits. We also carried out a tour of the premises and spoke with members of staff.

We carried out a focused inspection on 08 March 2017 at Surbiton Smile Centre.

We had undertaken an announced comprehensive inspection of this service on 25 November 2016 as part of our regulatory functions where breaches of legal requirements were found.

After the comprehensive inspection, the practice wrote to us to say what they would do to meet the legal requirements in relation to the breaches. This report only covers our findings in relation to those requirements and we reviewed the practice against one of the five questions we ask about services: is the service well-led?

We undertook this focused inspection on 08 March 2017 to check that they had followed their plan and to confirm that they now met legal requirements.

We found that this practice was now providing well-led care in accordance with the relevant regulations.
