PALS

The Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) offers support, information and assistance to patients, relatives and visitors.

PALS will:

• Provide information about hospital services.
• Offer advice on where to go to get health information.
• Help with problems that you haven’t been able to sort out with staff on a ward or in a clinic.
• If you want to make a complaint - advise you how to do so.
• Tell you about independent organisations that can help you with a complaint.
• Listen to your views on how we can improve our services, and pass this on to the appropriate people for action.

Our PALS team are available Monday to Friday 09:00 -17:00
