Compliments and Complaints<br />
As a Trust we are encouraged that our patients, their families<br />
and visitors can access ways to provide us with feedback and<br />
we welcome their comments.<br />
A total of 334 formal complaints were received by the Trust<br />
during <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> on a range of issues as detailed in the graphs<br />
below. This equates to 4.2 complaints per 1000 admissions.<br />
All complaints are seen and responded to by the Chief<br />
Executive and we regularly review trends and change our<br />
practices as a direct result of this invaluable feedback. For an<br />
example of changes to practice following a complaint see case<br />
