Compliments & Concerns
From time to time you may have feedback or concerns in relation to your own care, the care of others, or any of the services provided by North Brink Practice. For example, feedback may include:
1. Compliments that you wish to pass on to our staff.
2. Suggestions as to how we might improve.
3. Reasons why you are not happy with the care or services you have received.
It is usually best that feedback is received by the individual most directly involved in delivering your care. In most cases, this individual is best placed to make amends or immediate improvements.
If you are unhappy with the outcome then you may ask to speak to a member of the practice management team; either the manager responsible for the care you have received or the practice manager who will investigate your concerns or suggestions.
As an alternative, you can contact the complaints management team at NHS England who will investigate any concerns on your behalf. You may wish to go direct to NHS England in the first instance who will seek permission from you to share the details of your concerns with the practice.
