Purpose
As part of our commitment to being driven by the lived experience of consumers and carers, the MHCC is seeking to better understand and improve how it engages with consumers, carers and services through a survey.
The MHCC is seeking the views of consumers, carers, their family as well as other stakeholders about their experiences of engaging with the MHCC’s complaints process and its communications. Your answers will be anonymous and help provide the MHCC with valuable perspectives and insights that can support its commitment to driving continuous improvement.
The survey will take around 15 minutes to complete. Please click to complete the survey.
