Your Feedback Matters
At Salveo HomeCare, we are committed to providing high-quality services and value your feedback. If you have any concerns or issues, we encourage you to raise them with us so we can address them and continuously improve our services.
Open Communication is Key
We believe open communication is essential. If you have any concerns, please don't hesitate to discuss them directly with your Care Team at your next appointment. They are there to listen and address your needs.
Your Right to Advocacy
You have the right to involve an advocate to assist you in making a complaint. This advocate can be a friend, family member, or a professional advocate service.
Complaint Escalation Process
We take all complaints seriously. If you remain unsatisfied after discussing your concern with your Care Team, the relevant Care Partner will be notified and will investigate the issue thoroughly. The Care Partner will also inform the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of your complaint.
Should your complaint remain unresolved at this stage, you can escalate it further by writing a private and confidential letter to the CEO at Salveo Care - Level 5, 447 Collins St Melbourne VIC 3000.
Our Commitment to You
We aim to acknowledge all complaints within 24 hours and follow up to discuss the issue further. All complaints will be treated confidentially and will not affect the quality of care you receive at Salveo HomeCare.
Once Resolved
Once your complaint has been resolved to your satisfaction, we may contact you to ensure you are comfortable accessing our services and to gather your feedback on the complaints process. This feedback is valuable in helping us continuously improve.
External Options
If you prefer not to raise your complaint internally or it remains unresolved, a list of external complaint bodies is available below.
We're here to help in any way, give us a call for some free advice.
