During a routine inspection
We carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Marysville Medical Practice on 22 January 2020 following a change in the Provider’s legal entity from a Partnership to Individual on 1 October 2018. Due to a change in legal entity prior to April 2019, continuing regulated history does not apply and therefore the location was inspected as a new registration.
We based our judgement of the quality of care at this service on a combination of:
- What we found when we inspected
- Information from our ongoing monitoring of data about services and
- Information from the provider, patients, the public and other organisations.
We previously carried out an announced comprehensive inspection at Maryville Medical Practice on 24 June 2015. The overall rating was Outstanding. The practice was rated outstanding for providing effective, caring and responsive services and good for providing safe and well-led services.
