Patient Relations

The Patient Relations Program at the Kingston General Hospital provides a bridge between patients, families and the hospital. The focus of the Program is on improving communication, accessing information or resources and addressing and resolving difficulties. We encourage and welcome feedback and suggestions from patients and families by letter or by telephone.

Program Goals

  1. To serve as the entry point for the management of concerns about care and hospital services identified by patients ( families) and the public.
  2. To investigate concerns in a timely, thorough manner providing feedback to the patients and families.
  3. To treat patients, families and staff with respect, compassion and understanding as concerns are investigated.
  4. To maintain a record of positive feedback and compliments and share these with staff, management and the KGH Board on a regular basis.

The Kingston General Hospital Patient Relations Program office is open Monday to Friday from 0800-1600 hours (8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.) and is located on Empire 2, Room 3-263.
