Overview
We know dealing with complaints is no easy task. That’s why our Developing Effective Written Responses to Complaints in Healthcare course gives you advanced complaint handling letter writing skills, so you can deal with complaints efficiently and quickly.
Through a combination of group discussions, practical exercises and individual feedback from Communications Specialist, Sue Calthorpe, learn valuable skills and techniques to resolve complaints in a supportive environment.
By writing more effective responses to complaints, your organisation can improve its reputation; rebuild trust with patients, carers, and their families and avoid escalation of complaints to the Ombudsman.
