Hearing from patients about our performance is important to us, especially if there are questions or concerns about the care that you or a loved one has received.

It is equally important to receive compliments from patients and families so we can commend our staff on the excellent care they provide.


How can I express my concerns?

  1. The first step in voicing a concern is to bring the issue to the attention of the closest to your care; the nurse, physicians or other staff looking after you. In many cases, these individuals will have the greatest knowledge about your situation and will be able to respond to your concerns directly.
  2. If you are unable to resolve your concern at the point of care, ask to speak with the manager of the department or service area where you received care.
  3. If you are unsatisfied that your concern has been resolved after speaking with the department manager, please bring your concern forward through one of the following channels:

Telephone: 705-445-2550 ext: 8706
