Complaints

---

All our staff strive to provide the best possible care. However, occasionally things can go wrong and you might feel unhappy about the care or treatment you or someone you care for has received.

 

If you don't feel able to raise your complaint with the service, or have and are not satisfied with their response, please contact our complaints team who will be happy to help you.

 

If you wish to raise a concern without raising a formal complaint, please do this through our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS).

 

We are responsible for Adult and Children Mental Health and Community Health Services.

 

We assure you that your future care and treatment will not be affected should you make a complaint. 

 

Our complaints team is available from Monday to Friday 9am - 4:30pm and is based at:
