How do I raise a concern or make a complaint about a Hospital?
The Patient Advice & Liaison Service (PALS) are the main contact for concerns and complaints.
Your complaint will be acknowledged within three working days, and you’ll be contacted to ensure that your concerns have been recorded correctly.
You can get free support to help you make a complaint about the NHS by using the Independent Complaints Advocacy (ICA) service.
Healthwatch England and the Citizens Advice have also produced some resources available here.
