- If the issue is unresolved, complete a Grievance/Concern Report. Those forms can be found in the pocket folder next to the box located outside of the dining room or may be obtained from the nurses station or Social Services
- If you wish to file anonymously, do not sign the form before submission.
- Give completed form to a Social Service representative, Director of Nursing, Assistant Director of Nursing, Nursing Supervisor, or Charge Nurse. You may also place it in the box located alongside of the blank forms.
- Within five (5) working days of the date, you filed the report: you will be informed orally of the results of the investigation.
Note: Complaints of abuse, harassment, or mistreatment will be immediately investigated and you will receive an oral report of the findings, recommendations, and/or corrective action within four (4) working days of the filing of the report.
