We encourage you to discuss all concerns/grievances directly with us. The agency telephone number is 704-802-9625. When you call, ask to speak with a Clinical Supervisor, the Agency Director, Director of Nursing, or the Administrator.
We have a formal grievance procedure that ensures your concerns are reviewed and an investigation started within 1 business day. Every attempt shall be made to resolve all concerns/grievances within 5 business days. You will be kept informed by telephone of the status of the investigation and can request written report when resolution is determined.
If you feel the need to discuss or escalate your concerns, dissatisfaction, or complaints you may do so by contacting the state in which your home health services were performed or contacting the national accrediting body that oversees agency operations.
