Compliments & complaints

Fortunately our homes receive more compliments than complaints, and to see what our residents, their families and friends and others say about us, please click through to our Testimonials and Awards.

However, should you have any concern about the care given to any resident, or any aspect of how any of our homes are run, please do not hesitate to contact us and we will try to resolve your concern.

Almost all concerns are best raised with the home manager in the first instance in order that the concern can be addressed quickly, and the home manager will let you have a copy of the home’s written procedure for dealing with complaints if you require one.

If for any reason, you do not wish to raise the matter with the home manager, or are not satisfied with the response, then please use the Send a Message link to contact us, or email our Operations Director at lisa.soper@porthaven.co.uk or our Director of Nursing and Quality at Katarina.Parr@porthaven.co.uk who will deal with your concern.

Finally, if a complaint is not resolved satisfactorily, it can be referred to the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman at www.lgo.org.uk or telephone 0300 0610614.
