Our complaints procedure is flexible depending on what you are looking for when you complain and how we can best resolve the issues raised.
Speak to a member of staff
Most issues and concerns can be sorted out straight away just by talking to the person looking after you or your loved one, such as a doctor, nurse or therapist.
If you are not happy doing this, or you have tried and are not satisfied with the response, then ask to speak to the person in charge of the ward, department or service.
You can also talk to our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) who can help raise your concern with the right people.
There is no need to worry that telling staff of your concerns will affect your care – they would rather know that you have a problem so they can put things right.

Approaching the PHSO is the final stage for unresolved complaints. They would normally expect you to raise your complaint through the Trust’s complaints process in the first instance. This is so that we have the opportunity to look into your concerns and, where needed, put things right for you or a loved one. If you have reached the end of the complaints process, and remain unhappy with the organisation’s response and decision, you can approach the PHSO. If appropriate, they will investigate, to reach a final and fair decision.
