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 />

study below.<br />
