Concerns and Complaints
We want our patients to receive the best possible care and consideration from everyone at the CRGH. We are always looking for ways
to improve, and value your compliments, comments, concerns, and complaints about all aspects of our service.
It is always better for you to raise an issue immediately, so that we can respond and hopefully resolve any issue as soon as it arises.
If you have a concern you can speak to any member of your care team, or – if you prefer – ask to speak to a senior manager from the relevant department. If the senior management team are unable to help and you wish to escalate your concern to a formal complaint, you can contact us by email or letter:
