Our complaint process is confidential. No confidential information is shared and your privacy is protected. Any information you provide will not affect our commitment to providing a quality service to you or your family.

All community members and stakeholders are treated with courtesy and respect.

What happens once a complaint is made

If you provide contact details, you will be contacted within 3 working days to tell you how we will address your feedback or complaint.

If you make a complaint, we will investigate the complaint, decide the action to be taken and notify you of the outcome.
