We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at ReWonder Ltd on 21 June 2022. This was the first inspection of this provider since their registration with the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
This service is registered with CQC under the Health and Social Care Act 2008 in respect of some, but not all, of the services it provides. There are some exemptions from regulation by CQC which relate to particular types of regulated activities and services and these are set out in Schedule 1 and Schedule 2 of The Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014.
ReWonder Ltd provides a range of non-surgical cosmetic interventions which are not within the CQC scope of registration. Therefore, we did not inspect or report on these services. The services provided which require CQC registration included surgical thread lifts, treatment of hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), IV vitamin infusions, prescription medicines for weight management and the treatment of skin conditions.
The service does not treat people under the age of 18 years for the services which are regulated.
The clinician for the service, who is a registered nurse, is the registered manager. A registered manager is a person who is registered with the CQC to manage the service. Like registered providers, they are ‘registered persons’. Registered persons have legal responsibility for meeting the requirements in the Health and Social Care Act 2008 and associated Regulations about how the service is run.
Our key findings were:
- The service had systems and processes in place to keep people safe and safeguarded from abuse.
- There were systems in place to manage the safety of the premises.
- The premises were clean and tidy and there was an effective system in place to manage infection prevention and control (IPC).
- The service assessed needs and delivered care in line with relevant and current evidence-based guidance and standards.
- The clinician kept up to date in their specialist field and had undertaken appropriate training.
- Feedback from patients about the service was positive.
- People had access to the complaints process.
The areas where the provider should make improvements are:
- Implement prescribing and clinical audits to drive quality improvement.
