Complaints
Sometimes services do not run as smoothly as we would wish. If you would like to make a complaint regarding your care or experience we will deal with it in a constructive way in accordance with the NHS Complaints Procedure. Please write to the Practice Manager if you wish to make a formal complaint. Alternatively, speak to a member of staff who will try to resolve any problem you are experiencing, if they can.

Some of the issues an advocate can support peoples with include:
- Discuss complaints/issues/concerns in detail. Advocates will not say if a complaint is valid or not, they will make people aware of what they can and cannot achieve through the complaints process.
- Discuss the outcomes achievable through making an NHS complaint such as apology, explanation, service improvement or change in procedure.
- Draft a complaint letter from the information provided.
- Attend local resolution meetings.
