Denplan Excel Accreditation
The Brunel Dental Practice has recently achieved the prestigious Denplan Excel Practice Accreditation.
Supported by the Patients Association, the Denplan Excel Practice accreditation is a prestigious award and provides a visible sign of our commitment to quality and proves to our practice members, our patients, fellow dentists and the general public that we have reached the exacting standards set by the Denplan Excel programme.
Not only does it demonstrate that the quality of care, treatment and service that we provide is among the best available, but that you will be safe in the knowledge that our practice not only meets, but even exceeds standards of clinical governance, statutory requirements and industry best practice recommendations.
The Denplan Excel Accreditation Programme bases its quality assurance on a consistent Statement of Principles to which all accredited dentists are asked to commit:
- "We commit to the measurement of clinical effectiveness and oral health and to ensuring that this is communicated back to patients, both individually and as a group."
- "We will support patients in knowing what is being done, and why, to maximise their opportunity for improving oral health."
- "We care what our patients feel and think about the practice and will listen to, and act upon, their views and opinions."
"We are committed to opening our practice and procedures to regular independent monitoring and to act upon the results." - "We undertake to practice using the most appropriate procedures and dental knowledge and to ensure both the dentist and practice team are up-to-date with the latest dental and customer care techniques
The Denplan Excel Accreditation Programme is the only independently validated clinical governance peer assessment. In a recent survey 90% of Excel dentists agreed that "Denplan Excel is a good clinical governance compliance tool".
