Escalation of Care
We value patient safety above all else. Patients, families or carers have a right to further escalate their concerns and we encourage you to raise any concerns as early as possible.
Are you concerned or worried?
Escalation of care is a communication process that enables you as a patient, carer or family member to share your concerns with us.
Our staff are responsible for responding to your concerns in an appropriate manner and time frame.

- Talk to your nurse or doctor
- Ask to speak to the Nurse Unit Manager / Hospital In Charge. They can be contacted through 07 4942 3848
- If you are not satisfied with the response ask to speak with the Executive on call
