Workforce wellbeing and enablement
Staff told us there were friendly staff and good teamworking. Staff described a good culture, a strong team, and supportive leaders. However, some staff commented that communication could be improved for example with more regular team meetings. All staff had access to a freedom to speak up Guardian who was based in a nearby practice should they wish to raise any issues separately. Leaders told us that they fostered an open door policy for staff to approach them and raise concerns. They were able to provide examples of support that had been offered to staff in times of need.
The provider had policies in place to protect staff working alone. The practice had an outsourced human resources team who provide support to staff should they need additional support in their performance. Flexible working arrangements were available for staff where appropriate.
