Your views are very important to us. The best way to evaluate our service is for service users and their relatives to communicate directly with us. We are always interested in what you think, so please let us know.

 

Quality Assurance

 

To regularly improve the quality of our service we will annually audit our service every March with anonymous questionnaires. The results will be available in a booklet entitled ‘Quality Assurance Stakeholder Survey’ that can be found on display with our inspection reports at the entrance to the Home.

 

 

Complaints Procedure

 

Lugano Care Home has a complaints procedure and it is located in the office. If you are dissatisfied with any aspect of our service please contact the Manager, Stephanie, in the first instance. Stephanie will respond to a formal complaint in writing within 48 hours and will hope to resolve your complaint with 28 days of receipt.
