PALS and Complaints
Contacting us
Our Patient Advice & Liaison Service (PALS) and Complaints team provide a confidential service that is here to help when you need advice or you have concerns, suggestions or compliments - we do not provide clinical advice or have access to patient information. We aim to work with you to resolve any enquiries or concerns as soon as possible.
If your concerns relate to a single provider, such as a hospital or GP practice we recommend contacting them directly. Contact information can be found on their website - or the links below for most services. However, if your concerns involves multiple providers, please contact us.
If you are unable to resolve concerns with the service, and you wish to make a formal complaint, then you can contact our PALS team to discuss what options you have and how we can investigate complaints.
NHS Somerset recognises that complaints, concerns and feedback are a valuable source of information about the quality and safety of the services that we commission (pay for). We have processes in place to monitor and manage all feedback that we receive to improve services.
