Complaints Handling in Health and Social Care

3 hours

Course Description:

Completely avoiding complaints is nigh on impossible. Especially in health and social care settings where emotions can be heightened with people’s loved ones in care settings, often unwell. It is important to understand where complaints come from and often what they really mean. So often, a complaint is simply communication. Handled effectively, dealing with complaints can build rapport with the complainants and engage in topics we may not have been aware of.

This course will look at the different forms of complaints, understanding the Health and Social Care Act, and key skills in how to handle complaints effectively. For a full list of the learning outcomes, please see below.
