Complaints

How to raise a complaint

Raise a concern in the way that works best for you, ask what happens next and use the safeguarding route when the situation is more urgent.

What to include

  • What happened and when, as far as you know.
  • Who may be affected and whether there is an immediate risk.
  • How the home can safely contact you, or whether you need an anonymous route.
  • What outcome or response would help.
