Norman Hudson Care Home with Nursing

Meltham Road, Lockwood, Huddersfield HD1 3XH T: 01484 451669 At Norman Hudson we care for residents with various degrees of dementia and can offer the following care: Dementia Nursing Care Dementia Residential Care

General Nursing Care Residential Care

Most people with dementia cannot relax and be themselves unless the environment clearly gives them that message. Every aspect of daily living can effect whether a person with dementia feels comfortable and at home. We have created a friendly and homely environment based on recent techniques and research so that residents can be as independent as possible. The home benefits from wide, bright and trip free areas. To enable people to walk about, we have the facility of a safe, private garden and have enhanced the corridor areas to encourage stimulating exercise in a safe manner. Safety measures are in place to protect our vulnerable residents including keypad access to and from the home.

Holly Park Care Home with Nursing Clayton Lane Clayton Bradford BD14 6BB T: 01274 883480 / 884918

All our homes offer the quality of care you’d expect for your loved ones. We employ dedicated, well trained staff to provide 24 hour care in a professional respectful way. Nutrition and mental / physical stimulation is a key element of care, so menu choices are carefully planned to make meal times special and each home has an activities organiser to support our residents live active and fulfilled lives. Residents often enjoy local excursions in our minibus.

Each resident has a personal care plan which is the base for developing a new lifestyle and allowing families to remain involved in the life of the resident wherever possible.

Welcome from Kirklees Council Welcome to the 2014 Kirklees Care Services Directory which provides information for adults on a range of social care services that are available across Kirklees.

In line with the national agenda to ‘personalise’ social care services and make sure people have choice and control over support to meet their needs, Kirklees is working with partners and other organisations to improve the way care services are delivered.

Part of this work includes the implementation of Self-Directed Support which began in April 2010. This way of working will help people who are eligible for social care support to decide how best their needs are met. This may include using the services detailed in this directory, but could also include other services such as community and leisure activities.

This directory also includes information for people who do not have funding from Kirklees Council, and those who chose to pay for their own social care services. It provides information about the support available to family carers and is a helpful guide for people working in social care.

Kirklees Council provide a range of services to carers, such as assessing their support needs, helping them to take a well deserved break, connecting them with a network of carers and helping them in emergencies when their care cover breaks down.

So, whether you are someone looking for information about home care, specialist equipment to help keep people independent, or you are a family carer needing a short break or emergency support, this directory can help you make an informed decision.

It explains what help you might need to manage your own safety, security and health and provides useful information to help you feel confident in your own home and make the most of living in Kirklees.

The directory has been produced with you in mind.

However we know that there are many other organisations in Kirklees who can give you information and advice on how to live a full and happy life – far too many to mention – but we hope you find this directory useful and interesting as a starting, and future reference, point.

We welcome your comments and details on how to send us these are on page 16.

The inclusion of services in this directory does not constitute a recommendation or an endorsement by Kirklees Council. Most care providers listed are registered with the Care Quality Commission whose aim is to make sure better care is provided for everyone – in residential care homes, nursing homes and people’s own homes.

The council recommends you view a care provider’s inspection report before making your decision. See pages 6 & 10 or visit www.cqc.org.uk.

Information in the directory was accurate to the best of our knowledge at November 2013.

Looking for care

Kirklees Council’s staff use the criteria to make sure they treat everyone fairly and that people who meet the criteria for help receive services.

Their eligibility criteria is based on the legal requirements set down in the community care legislation.

For people who fall within the ‘critical’ and ‘substantial’ categories of the criteria, Kirklees Council have a statutory duty to provide services. For more information on who can have adult social care services please visit www.kirklees.gov.uk/eligibility >>

To find out about social care support why not take a look at our website www.kirklees.gov.uk/careandsupport which is packed full of useful information or contact the council’s Gateway to care on 01484 414933 and ask for an assessment of your care needs. You can do this at any time.

This assessment will check whether you can get help from the council to support your care needs, using guidance called ‘eligibility criteria’.

Looking for care continued >> ‘Critical’ care needs are when you cannot care for yourself because you are in immediate danger or you could cause harm to others. For example: • Life is, or will be, threatened • Significant health problems have developed or will develop • There is, or will be, little or no choice and control over vital aspects of the immediate environment • Serious abuse or neglect will occur • There is, or will be, an inability to carry out vital personal care or domestic routines • Vital involvement in work, education or learning cannot or will not be sustained • Vital social support systems and relationships cannot or will not be sustained • Vital family and other social roles and responsibilities cannot or will not be undertaken.

‘Vital’ is described as ‘necessary’ to the person’s life, health and well-being.

‘Substantial’ care needs are described as: • There is, or will be, only partial choice and control over the immediate environment

• The majority of family and other social roles and responsibilities cannot or will not be undertaken.

The services Kirklees Council provide in this category include: • Intensive support at home, like home care services • Equipment to help you live as independently as possible at home, such as a housing adaptation, a carephone or fall detector • Residential or nursing home care so that where possible you can regain your independence and confidence after a stay in hospital and return home etc.

Before the council decides whether they can provide you with support, they need to decide whether you are eligible for services.

Please don’t worry if you are not able to get support as Kirklees Council staff are trained to put you in touch with other organisations that may be able to help. Or alternatively you could look at Connect to Support where you can get information and advice, purchase services that will help to keep you independent for longer or get in touch with voluntary organisations in your local community. www.connecttosupport.org/kirklees

• Abuse or neglect has occurred or will occur • There is, or will be, an inability to carry out the majority of personal care or domestic routines • Involvement in many aspects of work, education or learning cannot or will not be sustained • The majority of social support systems and relationships cannot or will not be sustained

Assessments Kirklees Council’s aim is to help you live independently in your home for as long as possible. To help you achieve this and to decide whether you are eligible for services they will ask you questions about your circumstances and the things you need to keep your independence – this is called a ‘person-led assessment’.

For example they will talk to you about your: • Health – including mental health, physical disability, sensory impairments, for example your eyesight and hearing and mobility, such as how far you can walk, can you manage the stairs to get to bed etc • Personal care or activities of daily living home environment and where you live

• Social support and relationships including if you have someone who cares for you • Involvement in work, education and learning • Well-being, abuse or neglect.

If you have a carer they will also be offered an assessment of their needs.

The council usually need to take advice from health professionals. If you have other people involved in your care and support for example, your doctor, district nurse or occupational therapist, they will talk to them to get the fullest picture of your needs.

You can choose to complete the person-led assessment or the council can complete it with you. >>

Assessments continued >> Together we work out how much support you need.

The person-led support plan will record your desired outcomes and support needs. Kirklees Council will give you a copy of your plan. Depending on the outcome of your assessment, you will be allocated a personal budget, so you can buy the services you need. Depending on your financial situation it is likely that you will need to make a contribution towards your personal budget we will let you know how much this is as part of your financial assessment or you could use our online mini financial assessment tool to get an idea of your contribution

http://www2.kirklees.gov.uk/MiniFinancialAssessment /default.aspx.

You may not want to manage your personal budget or buy your own services. You may ask another person or the council to do this on your behalf. The most important thing is that you have the choice to choose the services you need that are identified in your person-led assessment.

People who come under section 117 of the Mental Health Act 1983 will continue to be exempt from making a contribution to their support costs. This means that they do not have to pay for any of their mental health services.

Your support plan Once your completed questionnaire has been agreed and your care professional has told you the resources and money you have available to support you, you should make your

support plan. You can have help to do this if you need it. Your support plan lists what help you need and what difference it will make to your life.

Self-Directed Support Self-Directed Support is a way of providing social care to adults in their own homes. It involves identifying a personal budget - an amount of money designed to help you take control over your life, so that you can meet your care needs and manage your own support. Personal budgets are designed for people who live in their own homes and cannot be used to pay for residential care.

You can choose to spend your personal budget in one of two ways. You can either give the money back to the council and ask them to continue to provide all your care, this is called a ‘virtual budget’ as no money actually changes

hands. Or you can choose to have a direct payment. If you choose a direct payment, the council will give you the cash to organise your own support.

You don’t have to manage the direct payment on your own; you could ask Kirklees Council or a friend or relative to help you. Some voluntary organisations will also manage the money for you and use it to buy the things you need.

For more information please visit: www.kirklees.gov.uk/careandsupport or telephone Gateway to care on 01484 414933.

The Care Quality Commission The Government has brought in a system that checks and regulates adult social care services. Registration is at the centre of the system.

All health and social care organisations have to register with the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Organisations must show they are meeting essential standards of

quality and safety across all the activities and services they provide. The system will make sure that people can expect services to meet essential standards of quality and safety that respect their dignity and protect their rights.

For further information, visit: www.cqc.org.uk.

Commissioning services Care support services can be commissioned in part or whole by the council, if you meet the eligibility criteria for ‘substantial’ or ‘critical’ needs. The council’s contracts team works with home care and care home providers who have a contract with the council to make sure services are flexible and responsive to a person’s situation.

6

Alternatively you can make private arrangements with service providers. Private fees for these services vary.

A provider will give you a detailed cost breakdown of charges before you start to receive any services. Please make sure you check this out before making a decision.

What support is available?

Support and care in your own home If you need help to live independently in your own home, or you are finding it difficult to manage at home, family and friends may be able to help. Alternatively, you could consider using the services of a home care/support provider. Home care providers employ care assistants to provide help in people’s homes.

Care assistants can provide help with personal care such as bathing, washing and dressing, and/or meals.

They are trained in personal care, moving and handling,

food hygiene, and infection control. They must be checked with the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and have had their references checked by their employers.

If you require nursing care at home, some home care providers can provide this. Some people may also require assistance with other day to day needs.

A list of home care providers operating in Kirklees starts on page 27.

Telecare and the Carephone Home Safety Service The Carephone Home Safety Service uses ‘telecare’ products.

‘Telecare’ products are communication aids which are installed in the home. They are linked to a team of trained staff at a local control centre, which works 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The telecare equipment lets the staff at the control centre know when people may need help. All telecare equipment is linked to a ‘Lifeline Unit’. This is similar to a telephone and can trigger an automatic alarm to the control centre.

The Carephone Home Safety Service is able to help people with many of their home safety problems. For example, if they have had a fall, or had a flood or a fire, the telecare equipment will automatically alert the control centre. This means that help can quickly be summoned to support people through their crisis.

Specially trained staff will give advice and reassurance; or contact friends or relatives if urgent help is required.

In circumstances in which telecare users need assistance but the situation is not felt to be a serious emergency and where family, carers, neighbours or domiciliary care providers cannot respond, control centre staff are able to request a visit from the Mobile Response Service.

The Mobile Response Service provides a fast and effective response to support people within their own

homes in situations where they require urgent assistance with personal care needs, moving and handling, reassurance, help or advice. Mobile Response staff have been appropriately trained in the delivery of personal care including movement and handling techniques and infection control.

When needed, the telecare control centre staff will contact the emergency services on behalf of the Carephone user.

The Carephone Home Safety Service working alongside the Mobile Response Service enables users to remain independent at home and also provides reassurance to relatives and carers that should an incident occur help will be at hand.

For more information please contact Kirklees Council’s Gateway to care on 01484 414933 or email: gatewaytocare@kirklees.gov.uk or visit: www.kirklees.gov.uk/careandsupport.

Leaving hospital The council can provide a service to patients, their families or carers which may make discharge from hospital quicker and safer. The council will come along and talk to anyone who needs help. Many people leaving hospital require little help, and may only need information. Other people leaving hospital may need the services mentioned below. These are known as ‘enablement services’ and are made up of the following people:

8

• Social Worker – who visits you on the ward to assess your needs.

• Domiciliary care co-ordinator – who plans and organises the agreed support when you are discharged from hospital.

• Occupational therapist – who assesses your ability to undertake daily tasks at home and gives advice on how you can maintain and improve your independence. >>

This Directory’s helpline 0800 389 2077 – information on choosing and paying for care

Leaving hospital continued • Home support worker – who will help you to regain your independence by supporting you in arrying out day-to-day tasks.

• Work with health colleagues to identify people who require this service.

The long term conditions service aims to:

• Identify people who are at risk of having to go back into hospital if they don’t have the care they need.

• Facilitate safe home support to people with long term conditions when needed.

• Improve the care provided to people living in Kirklees with a long term condition.

• Improve a person’s quality of life and encourage self care.

Nursing care If you wish to arrange care for yourself, you can contact providers listed in this directory. If you have nursing needs for example you need a registered nurse to administer medication, you need to ask for a ‘nursing determination’

– an assessment of your need for nursing given by a registered nurse. The NHS will make a contribution to cover the nursing care element of your fees.

Adapting your home Do you have mobility problems? Adaptations to your home may help you to get around more easily. Your assessment will identify if you meet the criteria for an adaptation to your home or if there are other ways to help meet your needs. If it is agreed you need adaptations to your home a referral will be made to the council’s Accessible Homes team.

Please contact Gateway to care on 01484 414933.

Equipment The council and its partners help people to deal with everyday living more safely and independently.

Occupational therapists and other specially trained staff can give you advice, assess your needs and those of your carer, if applicable. Depending on your individual circumstances, the council can loan or recommend equipment that will help you to: • Use the lavatory, wash or bath.

• Manage eating or drinking.

• Do household chores like cooking or tidying up.

• Get around the house or garden.

The Kirklees Integrated Community Equipment Service provides health and social care equipment for loan to people referred by a health or social care professional.

Please contact Gateway to care on 01484 414933.

Sensory Services for people with a sensory impairment These are services for people who: • Have a dual sensory loss (deaf/blind).

• Are deaf or hard of hearing.

• Have severe sight loss (blind).

• Are partially sighted or experiencing significant visual loss.

The council can offer advice and information covering a wide range of issues surrounding sensory loss. Once you have been referred to a sensory worker the team will offer an assessment of your abilities and social care needs. If

eligible, the council will work with you to decide which services/equipment will meet your needs. The team also offer support to families and carers and can provide a separate assessment for carers of disabled people. If you need services that are provided by other teams (e.g. home care or day services) the council will work with you to meet your needs. The council also work closely with the voluntary sector.

Dementia care If you are worried that your memory – or that of someone you know – is getting noticeably worse, or if memory loss is beginning to have a knock-on effect on everyday life, it is worth sharing your worries and seeking advice. That’s because memory problems can sometimes be an early sign of a medical condition such as dementia.

You should first have a chat with your GP, who will address your concerns or arrange for further investigation.

You may be referred to a local memory monitoring service where a formal diagnosis can be made.

Bear in mind that there are many reasons for memory loss apart from dementia. However, the earlier you seek help the better as there may be support or treatment available that can help you.

Kirklees Council can provide information about services and support available for people with dementia and their families. This can include support such as home care, social activities, short respite breaks, assistive technology

and equipment that will help you feel safe and remain independent at home, or residential and nursing care.

For more information please contact Kirklees Council’s Gateway to care on 01484 414933 or email: gatewaytocare@kirklees.gov.uk or visit: www.kirklees.gov.uk/dementia Kirklees Alzheimer’s Society can also offer information and advice about services and support available in Kirklees as well as an opportunity to meet other families affected by dementia.

To contact them visit www.alzheimers.org.uk or contact the local branch on 01484 429865 or 01924 444074 or email: kirklees@alzheimers.org.uk.

Support for unpaid carers Shared Lives ‘Shared Lives’ is a scheme provided by Kirklees Council, bringing together ‘Shared Lives’ carers recruited from the Kirklees community and people who need support to live independently.

The scheme helps many people, including people with learning or physical disabilities, mental health needs or older people. It gives them the chance to maintain their

independence and lead the life they want. ‘Shared Lives’ is a flexible and unique arrangement offering support from a few hours a week to a short break.

For more information telephone 01484 226520 or email: shared.lives@kirklees.gov.uk.

Short breaks (respite care) A carer can be a family member or friend living with you, or perhaps living nearby, who helps or provides care for you on a regular unpaid basis. These carers sometimes need a break. This could be for a few hours a week or for a longer break. Your carers needs and preferences for the type and length of break you have can also be assessed along with your own.

• If you have sufficient funds you may wish to arrange home-based respite care where another carer moves into your home for a short period.

For more information on services for carers contact Carers Gateway on 01484 226520 .

There are a number of options: • Support in the home can be arranged so your carer can have a break.

• Short stays in a residential placement might be the best option if you wish to go into a care home yourself for a week or two.

Residential care homes Inspecting care services All care services are required by law to register with the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Organisations must show they are meeting new essential standards of quality and safety across all of the activities and services they provide.

Homes are categorised by the type of care they provide

and are listed in this directory, starting on page 30.

The latest inspection reports for care homes and care homes with nursing in Kirklees can be viewed at www.kirklees.gov.uk/carehome where there is a direct link to the CQC website.

Is a care home right for me?

If you would like or need greater security and assistance with personal care such as bathing, feeding, dressing and help with moving, a care home may be the answer. Kirklees Council will assess your care needs. The assessment will be used to tell you about the care choices you have. You will be fully involved in planning your care needs.

Care homes with nursing If you think your needs are too great to be met in a care home that offers personal care only you may need a care home which offers nursing care. A care professional or a registered nurse will visit you to look at what care you will need. This visit might be in your own home, a hospital if you’ve been ill, or a residential care home. You will be fully involved in planning your care needs.

If a care home providing nursing care is the best solution for you, the care professional will give you information to help you find a home which meets your care needs. The cost of the nursing care part of your fees is paid by the NHS directly to the care home. It is important that you get your nursing care needs identified before you go into the care home with nursing. You may be entitled to ‘fully funded continuing health care’. This will be looked at during the assessment process. You may want a carer, family member or friend to be part of this.

Please note: If the person needing care is in either a care home or a care home with nursing and has a diagnosis of dementia, please make sure the care home’s ‘statement of purpose’ says that it provides dementia care.

This directory contains details of residential care homes and care homes with nursing in Kirklees starting on pages 30 and 34 respectively. You can also visit www.kirklees.gov.uk/carehomes.

Paying for your care Attendance Allowance This is a non-means-tested, non-taxable benefit from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).

It’s paid at the lower rate of £53.00 a week if you need care by day or night and at the higher rate of £79.15

a week if you need care during the day and night.

Everyone who needs care can, and should, claim Attendance Allowance.

NHS Nursing Care Contribution If you are a temporary or permanent resident who lives in a care home that provides nursing care you may be able to get the NHS Nursing Care Contribution towards the cost. It is not means-tested and is currently £109.79 a week for the standard rate. This is paid directly to the home.

What will you have to pay for your care?

Do you have more than £23,250 in capital and savings?

What is ‘capital’?

The value of your home is included in the assessment of your capital unless one of the following still lives there: • Your partner (that is, your husband, wife or civil partner, or someone you live with as if they were your husband, wife or civil partner) or

to arrange for a third party - such as a family member or charity - to ‘top-up’ the difference. You are not allowed to do this yourself if your capital is below £23,250.

If you have capital between £14,250 and £23,250 you will pay £1 a week for every £250 you have above £14,250.

• A relative who is over 60 or disabled or

Twelve-week property disregard

• A child under 16 who you, or a former partner, are responsible for.

The council will not take into account the value of your property for a period of twelve weeks.

This applies if:

If you don’t have more than £23,250 in capital and savings Kirklees Council will contribute financially towards your care costs. But only after they have carried out a financial assessment of your care needs.

YES – You do have to pay if... you do have more than £23,250 in capital and savings. Ask Kirklees Council for a Person Led Assessment. Any care homes you consider must be able to meet your assessed care needs.

If, apart from your property, your savings are less than £23,250, Kirklees Council can help with your care costs for the first twelve weeks.

After this time you can apply for a loan to help you whilst your property is being sold.

How much?

You will need to ask Kirklees Council for a Person Led Assessment. This will identify your care needs and how they will be best met. Any care homes you consider must be able to meet these needs. Kirklees Council will also make an assessment of your financial situation. This sets out how much they will pay and how much you will have to pay.

Your choice of care home will be limited to those that accept Kirklees Council’s agreed funding level. If you want to choose a more expensive home you would have

• Your former home is included in your financial assessment • Your other capital is less than £23,250, and • Your income is not enough to meet your care home fees.

Kirklees Council will help with the cost during the first twelve weeks of long-term care in a home, provided your assessment has shown that this is the kind of care you need. This is called the ‘property disregard’ period.

Deferred payment agreements After the twelve-week property disregard period, Kirklees Council may be able to help you while your property is being sold. They will charge any financial help they give against the value of your home. This means they will take back the amount they have paid once your property has been sold. However, they may limit how much they will pay It may affect your entitlement to Pension Credit if your property is not seen to be on the market for sale and becomes treated as capital by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).

Figures quoted here may change over the lifetime of this directory. After April 2014, please contact Gateway to care for up to date figures.

Self-funding advice If you have more than £23,250 in capital or savings you will have to pay for any care services you need, although if you need care in your own home or are considering moving into a care home, you will still be able to have a social care assessment by Kirklees Council. This person-led assessment will make sure that your needs will be met.

Also, if you expect your capital to fall below £23,250 as a result of paying for care, Kirklees Council may then help you with the cost.

If you are moving into a care home, you may be able to have financial help and support such as the twelveweek property disregard or deferred payment agreements detailed on page 14.

What if you run out of money?

If your capital is likely to reduce to £23,250 as a result of paying for care, you must tell Kirklees Council well in advance that this is going to happen. They will then be able to help with your care fees (provided your care needs assessment has shown that you need residential care).

They will carry out a financial assessment to confirm the date from which your funds fell below £23,250, and the amount they will contribute towards your care.

If the home you have chosen charges more than Kirklees Council will pay, you must find someone to pay the difference – a ‘top-up’ payment. Whoever does this, whether a family member or a charity, they should understand that the cost could increase, and that they will have to pay the top-up for as long as necessary.

Alternatively, you may have to find a cheaper home.

Understanding your rights before moving into care is essential. There are a number of financial products and specialist companies who may be able to help. It is important to seek advice before committing yourself.

Whatever your circumstances... (whether you receive home care support or residential care) Remember: • It is just your own financial circumstances that are assessed, not your partner’s.

• Your assessment will be made up of two elements, a care needs assessment and a financial one.

• A care home with nursing will generally be more expensive than a care home providing personal care only.

Consider claiming: • Income support • Pension Credit • Savings Credit (if you are over 65) Definitely claim: • Attendance Allowance, worth £53.00 a week.

Moving into a care home with nursing?

• You may be eligible for the NHS Nursing Care Contribution – currently £109.79. This is paid directly to the home.

Always seek advice: • Independent help is available to guide you through your financial options. There may be a number of solutions to retaining your capital whilst paying for care.

For more information about paying for care please contact Kirklees Council’s Gateway to care on 01484 414933 or email: gatewaytocare@kirklees.gov.uk or visit: www.kirklees.gov.uk/careandsupport.

Essential information – keeping safe Safeguarding vulnerable adults Who is a vulnerable adult?

A vulnerable adult is someone who is not able to care for or protect themselves from harm and exploitation.

It might be because of their age, mental or physical incapacity, sensory loss, or physical or learning disabilities.

It might be someone who is usually able to manage but is unable to do so because of an accident or illness. All people should be able to live their lives free from fear and harm. Some may find it hard to get the help and support they need to stop the abuse.

What kinds of abuse are there?

Abuse can: • Be an act which goes against your human rights

• Psychological – for example, shouting, swearing, frightening, blaming, ignoring or humiliating • Financial – for example, the illegal or unauthorised use of a person’s property, money, pension book or other valuables • Sexual – for example, forcing a person to take part in any sexual activity without consent • Neglect – for example, where a person is deprived of food, heat, clothing, comfort or medication • Discriminatory abuse, including racist, sexist and other forms of harassment.

A vulnerable adult may also neglect themselves or deliberately harm themselves.

• A single act or repeated acts • Happen in any relationship

It’s everyone’s responsibility to speak out.

• Result in harm

If you have heard or seen something that worries you, or if you think someone is being abused, please tell us about it. Telephone Gateway to care on 01484 414933. Or email gatewaytocare@kirklees.gov.uk

• Take advantage of someone’s vulnerability There are six main types of abuse: • Physical – for example, hitting, slapping, burning, pushing, restraining or giving too much medication or the wrong medication

Together we can stop it.

Why your views are important If you, a relative, friend or guardian have a service from us, and have comments to make, good or bad, then please let us know. Kirklees Council and its partners have been working very hard to promote dignity and respect to everyone who uses their services.

If you feel you have not been treated with dignity and respect, they want to know. If you are not happy with the action taken, they can look into it as a complaint.

Who should I talk to?

Send your comments to: Customer Services Unit Tel: 01484 225115 Well-being and Communities email: sscu@kirklees.gov.uk Kirklees Council www.kirklees.gov.uk/complaints 30 Market Street, Huddersfield HD1 2HG

The best way to deal with a complaint is to talk to the manager of the service you receive. They will work with you to resolve the problem so you feel happier with the service you get. If you don’t know who to talk to, the Customer Services Manager can advise you.

They will make sure your complaint is looked into by the right people in order to provide the best possible outcome.
