Support to give feedback

What happens after a complaint is made?

Northcott is committed to resolving complaints in an ethical, confidential, timely, transparent and fair way. 

We view feedback as a positive opportunity to improve the quality of our services and operations, and to strengthen relationships with our customers and with our community.

Complaints are treated confidentially. Only the people who need to help find a resolution will be involved. Our Quality Review Committee ensures the processes are followed in an appropriate and timely manner.
