Community Support during Covid-19

During these uncertain times of social distancing we would like to ask the communities that if you would wish to write or draw any pictures or letters our residents would love to receive these through the post.

Complaints Procedure

As a Client of Prospect House you are in the care of the staff at the Home, the Local Authority and Social Services.

If you have a complaint of any nature please follow the procedure as outlined below.

  • Inform the staff on duty. If they are unable to assist at the level you require they will arrange a meeting for you with the Manager.
  • Written records of complaints will be kept in the designated file.
  • Confidentiality and respect are adhered to at all times.
  • An investigation will be made on your behalf and the appropriate action taken within 24 hours. You will be informed of the outcome when the investigation is complete, which will usually be within 28 days.

If you feel there is still reason for further complaint as the matter has not been dealt with in the manner you require, you can write contact:
