We undertook a follow up focused inspection of Mr Osman Mohammed on 7 November 2023. This inspection was carried out to review the actions taken by the registered provider to improve the quality of care and to confirm that the practice was now meeting legal requirements.
The inspection was led by a CQC inspector who was supported by a second CQC inspector.
We had previously undertaken a comprehensive inspection of Mr Osman Mohammed on 11 July 2023 with a further announced visit taking place on 2 August 2023 under Section 60 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 as part of our regulatory functions. We found the registered provider was not providing well-led care and was in breach of Regulation 17 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014.
You can read our report of that inspection by selecting the 'all reports' link for Mr Osman Mohammed dental practice on our website www.cqc.org.uk.
When 1 or more of the 5 questions are not met, we require the service to make improvements. We then inspect again after a reasonable interval, focusing on the areas where improvement was required.
As part of this inspection we asked:
- Is it well-led?
Our findings were:
Are services well-led?
We found this practice was providing well-led care in accordance with the relevant regulations.
The provider had made improvements in relation to the regulatory breach we found at our previous inspection visits.
