Our complaints procedure

If you are unhappy with any part of our care service, then please talk to us. By discussing your concerns immediately, issues can usually be resolved swiftly. Please do contact our Care Partnership Team who will be able to discuss the problem with you and together you can agree the next steps. In the event that a solution cannot be found immediately, then our complaints process follows three stages which is outlined below:

Stage One
In the first instance, please contact our Care Parntership Team as many issues can be resolved immediately. However, if the concern is about this team, then please email: complaints@iphomecare.co.uk and a member of the senior management team will investigate your concerns.

Stage Two
If you are unhappy with the response or the complaint cannot be resolved, then an independent senior manager will be allocated. They will review the findings and outcomes from the previous investigation.

Stage Three
In the instance that the complaint cannot be resolved in stage two, an independent and impartial review of the concern and all investigations will be managed by someone at director level, who will make an informed decision on any further action required.

 

If you have engaged a live-in carer or a private PA through our introduction service then you are their employer.  You might want to read the ACAS guidance on how to approach your carer with your complaint yourself.  We will try to help as much as possible with this process by sharing protocols and approaches. Please remember though that if you have a complaint about a carer that you are their employer and not us, we have only introduced them as passing our screening tests.  It is up to you to make sure that you are happy with them and their job performance.
