Submit a compliment about a team member
- You can also use the feedback form to submit compliments.
- You can request a formal meeting with a program manager.
- You can offer cards, letters or verbal compliments to anyone on the care team.
Our employees can’t accept gifts with a monetary value.
What if you do not want a staff person involved in your care?
You can ask for removal of a member of your care team. Speak with the program manager or use the feedback form.
The supervisor or program manager will take the following steps:
- Speak with you to try to identify the specific issue.
- Put supports in place for your needs.
- Try to fix the issue through staff training.
- Ask you to allow the staff to remain in place long enough to see if the training addresses the issue.
- Follow-up with you to see if you still have concerns.
What if the problems have not been resolved?
The program manager will remove the person from your care team. This may not happen right away, because of scheduling issues. If you find this takes too long, follow-up with the program manager.
What happens after you submit your feedback?
We follow up on all feedback. Someone will contact you unless you tell us not to.
Once you share your feedback and tell us that you would like a follow-up, we'll contact you and work towards resolving the issue. In the case of a complaint or concern, we'll follow up:
- immediately if you contact us in person; and
- within 1-3 working days if your feedback comes by email or fax.
