The practice aims to comply with all current employment legislation and good practice guidance. The following procedures are followed when recruiting and carrying out induction for new staff members:

Recruitment and selection

Staff needs are carefully planned and the required skills are reflected in advertising and job descriptions.

Staff are engaged following our effective Recruitment and Selection Policy to ensure that they are able to perform their role. The recruitment process avoids discrimination and there is always a check that the individual is legally entitled to work in the UK. The successful applicant is the closest match to business needs and has the required qualifications, registrations and experience.

Appointment is made subject to references from satisfactory employment and/or clinical references. The individuals are requested to have an enhanced DBS check as required. Criminal record disclosures are stored securely for an appropriate time, not usually more than 6 month. For the procedure refer to DBS (PVG, Access NI) Checks (M 228).

Newly appointed employees are requested to complete a medical questionnaire to ensure that support and, where necessary, reasonable adjustments are provided in order not to place those with an illness or condition at risk and prevent them from placing others at risk.

Temporary and staff employed on a fixed term contract basis are subject to the same checks and selection criteria as permanent team members. Where Agency staff are engaged, written confirmation is obtained from the Agency that all the necessary checks have been undertaken, including enhanced DBS
checks.

Induction

All new employees are given induction following the programme in Staff Induction. At the end of the induction process training and development plans are agreed.

Trainees

Trainee nurses are enrolled on a training course leading to qualification and registration with the GDC.

They are given tasks that are appropriate to their stage of training and competence.

Appraisal

All staff undergo annual appraisal following Staff Appraisal.

Stay safe, and we look forward to seeing you soon.
50km… and counting! 🚲💪

Our Clinical Director, Dr Carol Somerville Roberts, has just completed her longest training ride yet — an incredible 50 kilometres — as she prepares for a life-changing charity cycle from the base of Kilimanjaro to the Ngorongoro Crater in February 2026.

Carol is taking on this huge challenge to raise funds for Bridge2Aid, a charity providing vital emergency dental care and training in Tanzania. The money raised will help run an outreach and training programme where eight Dental Therapists will be trained and around 2,000 people will receive essential dental treatment.

For someone who hasn’t been on a bike in years, months of training in all weathers is no small feat — and we couldn’t be more proud of her determination.

If you’d like to support Carol and help make a genuine difference to communities with little or no access to dental care, you can donate here:

Every donation, big or small, will have an immense impact.
Thank you for cheering her on! 💜
You were expecting a big before-and-after reveal, weren’t you? 😁
Here’s the truth: the best way to save money at the dentist is simple — floss! 🦷
A few seconds a day can help prevent costly treatments later.

Claire used to feel really self-conscious about her stained teeth and often hid her smile. After having veneers at Evolve Dentistry, she now smiles confidently — and can’t stop! 💚

Her story is a wonderful reminder of how transforming your smile can transform how you feel, too.
