Complaints, Compliments, Comments and Suggestions

Complaints

As a Practice we all try hard to provide the best possible service for our patients with the resources available. If you are dissatisfied with any of our services, please speak to the Patient Services Manager in the first instance.

If you are dissatisfied with the response, please put your complaint in writing, addressed to Dr Mike Mullin, Executive Partner, or Amanda Skelding-Jones, Business Manager. We will look into your complaint and send you a written acknowledgement within three working days. Once your complaint has been investigated we will then write to you again with an explanation or suggest a meeting.

We feel it is much better for grievances to be tackled as soon as possible and, ideally, directly between the parties involved, as misunderstandings can be more readily resolved in this way.

If you don’t want to make a complaint to the practice, you can contact the commissioner of the service NHS Cheshire & Merseyside integrated care board;

Cheshire Care Record

Sharing your health and social care information to give you better care.

The Cheshire Care Record is a collaboration between all GP, hospital, community, mental health and social care services provided across Cheshire.

If you have already told your GP that you don’t want your health data to be shared, you may wish to reconsider and ask your GP to share your data locally so that a Cheshire Care Record can be created for you.

Whether you are visiting your GP, attending hospital, or being seen in your own home or health centre by a community nurse or social worker, we want you to get the best care. We can only do this if all the health and social care professionals involved in your care have access to the information they need to make informed decisions with you.

For more information you can visit website Cheshire Care Record or download the Cheshire Care Record Leaflet

Chaperone Policy

All patients have the rights to a chaperone during their appointments.

If you would like to have a chaperone present during an examination or consultation, please arrange this with any member of our clinical team.
