Quality Practice Award (QPA)

 

What is QPA?

 

QPA is a quality assurance process which was developed in Scotland and launched as a UK wide Royal College of General Practitioners initiative in 1997. Through collection of evidence against stretching standards, general practices are awarded this highly regarded, quality marker which recognises a high standard of quality patient care delivered by every member of the extended practice-based team.

 

How does it work?

 

Bugbrooke Medical Practice was one of 13 practices working on version 10 of the award, the process took approximately 2 years. A portfolio of written evidence set against a number of criteria covered in 6 modules was submitted to the College.

A full day assessment visit, to confirm the accuracy of our submission took place on the 13^th October 2009, at the final feedback session at the end of the day we were told that we had been successful in achieving the Quality Practice Award, which is valid for 5 years.

 

There are currently 212 practices UK wide with the award, Bugbrooke Medical Practice is proud to be one of only 98 practices in England, and the only practice in Northamptonshire with this Quality Practice Award.

 

We were given a plaque to recognise this award, which is displayed in the waiting room.
