When making a complaint directly to EPA, please make complaints in writing or by email whenever possible. If your complaint is made in person or by telephone, please provide as much information as possible to assist us with our investigations. Any information provided in person or by telephone should be repeated back to confirm details for accuracy.

The EPA Service Operations Manager will manage the complaint. All complaints are reviewed at the EPA Clinical Governance Committee. Complaints and their responses are reviewed to make sure that actions are appropriate and whether there is any requirement to escalate to the EPA Management Committee and EPA Board. A full investigation usually takes around two months to complete.
