In short

Why the gp surgery pack
Whole-practice coverage
Ten core policies plus six risk assessments spanning clinical safety, infection control, information governance, fire, COSHH and display screen equipment.
Mapped to the framework
Each document references the regulations and quality statements it supports, so you can drop it straight into your evidence against the single assessment framework.
Written for primary care
These are not generic health-and-safety templates. They are written in the language of general practice - GMS/PMS contracts, PCNs, the practice team and patient pathways.
Audit-ready from day one
Controlled versioning, owners and review dates throughout, so your policy folder withstands scrutiny without a last-minute scramble before inspection.
