Letter from the Chief Inspector of General Practice

We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection of this practice on 2 September 2015. Breaches of Regulatory requirements were found during that inspection within the safe and domain. After the comprehensive inspection, the practice sent us an action plan detailing what they would do to meet the regulatory responsibilities in relation to the following:

• Ensure that they follow through on plans to have a legionella risk assessment of the premises undertaken. (Legionella is a term for a particular bacterium which can contaminate water systems in buildings).

• Ensure that they follow through on plans to put in place regular electrical testing and that it is carried out on all electrical equipment within the premises.

We undertook this focused desktop inspection on 18 October 2016 to check that the provider had followed their action plan and to confirm that they now met regulatory requirements. A desktop inspection is when we request information from the registered provider to check that they have taken action to meet regulations without a visit to the location.

This report only covers our findings in relation to those requirements. You can read the report from our last comprehensive inspection, by selecting the 'all reports' link for Dr David Supple and Partners on our website at www.cqc.org.uk.

This report should be read in conjunction with the last report published in December 2015.

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

• We saw evidence that a legionella assessment was carried out and remedial action taken as a result of this assessment.
• We saw evidence that electrical wiring testing had been carried out on all electrical equipment and pre-booked annual re-inspections.
