Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Doctors Crawley, Field, Coskery, Noble & Maher (known as Wincobank Medical Centre) on 17 March 2016. Overall the practice is rated as good.

Our key findings across all the areas we inspected were as follows:

  • There was an open and transparent approach to safety and an effective system in place for reporting and recording significant events.
  • Risks to patients were assessed and well managed.
  • Staff assessed patients’ needs and delivered care in line with current evidence based guidance. Staff had the skills, knowledge and experience to deliver effective care and treatment.
  • Patients said they were treated with compassion, dignity and respect and they were involved in their care and decisions about their treatment.
  • Information about services and how to complain was available and easy to understand.
  • Patients said they found it easy to make an appointment with urgent appointments available the same day.
  • The practice had good facilities and was well equipped to treat patients and meet their needs.
  • There was a clear leadership structure and staff felt supported by management. The practice proactively sought feedback from staff and patients, which it acted on.
  • The registered provider was aware of and complied with the requirements of the Duty of Candour.

We saw one area of outstanding practice:

  • We were told how the GPs had been trained to use specialist equipment to perform a procedure, normally carried out by a practice nurse for a patient who worked away all week so they could offer the patient the regular monitoring treatment they required on a Saturday at the extended hours clinic (when there was no nurse on duty).

The areas where the provider should make improvement are:

The practice should ensure all records relating to staff management are fully completed and signed, for example, recruitment and staff appraisal documentation.
