Assessing needs
The judgement for Assessing needs is based on the latest evidence we assessed for the Effective key question.
Delivering evidence-based care and treatment
The provider had systems to ensure that people who used the service received person-centred, care and treatment, that was appropriate, met their needs and was reflective of their personal preferences. Preventive oral health care was encouraged Staff kept up to date with current evidence-based practice, and had the skills, knowledge and experience to carry out their roles. We looked at 6 patient care records. The information recorded in these patient care records was in line with recognised guidance. Staff obtained patients’ consent for treatment in line with legislation and guidance and understood their responsibilities under the Mental Capacity Act 2005. Staff described how they involved patients’ relatives or carers when appropriate and made sure they had enough time to explain treatment options clearly. We saw evidence the clinicians justified, graded and reported on the radiographs they took. The practice had systems for the safe handling and prescribing of medicines. Where applicable, patients were referred to primary and secondary care specialists for treatment the practice did not provide. This included referring patients with suspected cancer under the national two-week wait arrangements. Staff felt the practice supported them to develop and enabled them to take on responsibilities.
