Notes The Customer Engagement Team supports users of the Adult Social Care & Health in a number of different ways.

The team handles complaints, enquiries and praise from service users. It ensures that complaints are dealt with effectively and within appropriate timescales and that those people needing assistance to make a complaint are provided with it. The team also co-ordinates enquiries from Members of the Council.

Complaints, comments and praise about Adult Social Care & Health can be made either in writing, over the telephone or in person. Where necessary, a member of the Customer Engagement Team will visit a service user in their own home to take down details of a complaint. A pre-paid form is available at most Social Services buildings upon which complaints, comments and praise can be written. Where a service user needs assistance in making their complaint the team will provide them with an advocate to give them the necessary support.

There is one stage to the Adult Social Care & Health complaints procedure. If the service user remains dissatisfied, they must contact the Local Government Ombudsman.

The team is also responsible for Adult Social Care & Health's compliance with Data Protection legislation and provides advice to staff and members of the public about the procedures for accessing client records and requests for information under the Freedom of Information Act.
