Complaints and Concerns

NOTICE

Patients and families are informed upon admission of their rights and the procedure to file a concern or complaint. Concerns are responded to as soon as possible for any emergent concerns and resolved through the Customer Service Recovery Process within five business days or sooner if possible.

All concerns are documented on a Concern Recovery Form and forwarded to the Business Development Coordinator, who will promptly share them with relevant supervisors and or the Chief Executive Officer and ensure tracking is completed for Performance Improvement. Performance Improvement data will be shared with the Board of Directors during quarterly meetings.

The Customer Service Recovery Process is how Hospice Care Plus responds to concerns and uses them as opportunities to examine our process, policy, practice, and staff education needs.
