CQC inspection report

We have just received our updated CQC inspection report from their visit on 29 September 2018, you can click here to read the report. It is obviously a big challenge for a small practice to meet our inspection requirements and we are therefore delighted to continue to be rated as a GOOD practice. We are trying to adapt and improve and hopefully continue to deliver a great service to the Hartland area.
