How do I make a complaint?
The best way to make a complaint is to speak to a member of staff
who is involved in your care. If you do not feel comfortable talking
to someone directly, you can ask for someone independent to help you.
The complaints team can tell you more about this. If staff have been
unable to resolve your concerns and you want to make a formal complaint
you can contact the Trust's Chief Executive or Complaints Department:
