Healthwatch

Healthwatch North Lincolnshire is the independent consumer champion for health and social care. Their job is to give everyone a local, powerful voice to help you get the best out of health and social care services in your area.

Healthwatch North Lincolnshire:

  • Provides information to the public about accessing health and social care services
  • Provides support for complaints about NHS services. The Independent Complaints Advocacy (ICA) will help you explore your options at every stage of your complaint and can give you information that can help you decide what to do (see below for more information on ICA)
  • Ensures the involvement of local people in the provision, monitoring and Commissioning of local services

North Lincolnshire Independent Complaints Advocacy (ICA):

The registered charity, Carers Federation, has been appointed to provide the NHS Independent Complaints Advocacy for North Lincolnshire under the umbrella of Healthwatch North Lincolnshire.

North Lincolnshire ICA, is a totally free and independent service which supports people through the NHS complaints process to seek an explanation, an apology or to ask for a service to be improved. People are offered a Self Help Information Pack if they would like to make a complaint themselves, or if they need more support our experienced Advocate is on hand to help.

For more information or to request support from ICA, call Freephone number, 0808 802 3000 (free from landlines and mobile phones) or visit www.carersfederation.co.uk

Healthwatch North Lincolnshire Volunteers: We are keen to recruit volunteers who want to make a real difference to the way that local and health and social care services are run. If you are interested in a volunteer role, please contact us.

Healthwatch Patient Survey: Healthwatch want to hear about your experiences. If you have used your GP, dentist, local hospital or another health or social care service in the last year, we want to hear about it. Tell us your views by completing our short online survey: www.surveymonkey.com/s/patientviewshwnl
