Please be assured that while all complaints are still being dealt with, it may take us longer to get back to you than usual due to the developing situation with Coronavirus (COVID-19).
If you require information on corona virus (COVID-19) you can find the most recent updates on public health advice here:

A free helpline has been set up for those who do not have symptoms but are looking for general health advice: 0800 028 2816
If you have symptoms, it is important that you stay at home for 7 days from the start of your symptoms. Other members of your household should stay home for 14 days from the start of your symptoms, even if they don’t have symptoms themselves.
We aim to provide the highest quality services possible. We aim to do this by delivery of safe, effective and person-centred care. The vast majority of our patients have a good experience. We do not underestimate the emotional, and sometimes physical, impact on people who have a less positive experience.
The views of people who use our services help us to make continuous improvements. Our complaints process is a key component of this.
This page is to give you guidance on how to make a complaint if you wish to do so.
Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP)
Patient Advice and Support Service
Please speak to the person or team responsible if you are not happy with your treatment, or the treatment of someone you care about. This would be for example the nurse in charge of a ward, or the practice manager at a GP surgery.
If your complaint is about hospital services and you are not satisfied with the outcome, you can contact us.
If you wish to complain about your GP Practice but are finding this difficult, we can help (See ‘Complaints about Family Health Services’ below). If you need help you can contact us using the details below, by emailing [email protected], or by post. We will treat your complaint as formal in line with our Complaints Policy and Procedure.
We usually ask you to put your complaint in writing so that the terms of the complaint are clear. We can help you to do this if you need help. We can give you advice about where to get independent help in making your complaint. Return to top

If you are not comfortable doing this, we can help you find the best way to complain. We may be able to act as an intermediary to resolve any differences before you proceed with a formal complaint.
