Our view of the service

We carried out this on-site, announced assessment on 3 October 2024. We found the practice had not met all regulations. Recruitment procedures did not always reflect current legislation. Leadership was not always effective. Systems to support a culture of continuous improvement and development were not established. Patients were treated with dignity and respect and at the time of our assessment, could access care, support and treatment when required. Patients’ care and treatment was provided in line with current guidance and infection control procedures were in place. There was scope for improvement with the practice systems to manage risks. A & D Dental Practice LTD is in Nottingham and provides private dental care and treatment for adults and children. There was step free access to the practice. The practice had 1 treatment room. During the assessment we spoke with 1 dentist and 1 dental nurse. The provider was not complying with 1 regulation. Full details of the regulation the provider was not meeting are within the quality statement section of the report. We have asked the provider for an action plan in response to the concerns found at this assessment.

People's experience of this service

Two weeks before our on-site assessment, we asked the practice to encourage patients to share their views of the service with us. We did not receive any feedback from patients during or following the assessment process. The provider did not have systems in place to capture feedback from patients.
