CQC Regulation 16

Complaints Procedure

We are committed to listening to your concerns and resolving them quickly and fairly. Raising a complaint will never negatively affect your care.

Your care will not be affected

Making a complaint — or helping someone else to make one — will not result in any change to the quality or continuity of your care. We treat every concern with dignity and respect, and all complaints are handled confidentially.

Getting help to make a complaint

You can ask a friend, family member, or advocate to help you make a complaint or to act on your behalf. If you need an independent advocate, the following organisations can assist:

  • Age UK: 0800 678 1602 — free advice and advocacy for older people.
  • Carers UK: 0808 808 7777 — support for unpaid carers.
  • POhWER (advocacy charity): 0300 456 2370 — independent advocacy for NHS and social care complaints.

If you remain dissatisfied

If we have not resolved your complaint to your satisfaction within 20 working days, or if you feel the outcome is not fair, you may contact the following independent bodies:

Care Quality Commission (CQC)

Our regulatory body. The CQC cannot investigate individual complaints but records concerns and uses them to inform inspection decisions.

Local Government & Social Care Ombudsman (LGSCO)

Investigates complaints about adult social care providers not resolved locally. Free and independent.

Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)

For complaints about how we handle your personal data under UK GDPR.
