Complaints Procedure

Reviewed 26/03/2019

ARMSCARE take all complaints seriously and value your opinion, we encourage you to tell us your concerns so we can put things right. 

 

We do understand that some people are worried about sharing their concerns and complaints with us, so we have a no blame policy and deal with all complaints as opportunities for improvement to our service.

Initially, a complaint can be raised with a senior member of the staff team, who will pass the complaint to the appropriate person 

 

  • You can speak to the Manager who will decide whether an investigation is necessary. Depending on the seriousness of the complaint, timescale may vary from 48 hours to 7 days. If the complaint is of a more serious nature, then it may take up to three months, due to other professional involvement (other agencies).

  • Leave a message in the Complaints Box in the reception area

  • Email the Home Manager, Business Support Manager, The Directors

  • If the complaint is about the manager, you can speak to the Operations Manager
