Health PEI Patient/Family Public Feedback

Health PEI values your input; we want to hear from you. We want to hear what you have to say so we can better understand what we are doing right and what we can do better. Your feedback, including both concerns and compliments, helps us continuously improve the quality of Health PEI's programs and services.

If you want to share your feedback regarding Health PEI programs or services, there are two options: 

Option 1

Talk to your healthcare provider or manager/designate directly.

Whenever possible we encourage you to speak with your health care team first.

  • Your team knows you best
  • Discussing your questions or concerns may resolve any issues right away
  • This is often the best way to proceed
  • You can also ask the manager or supervisor for assistance

Option 2

Contact the Patient Experience/Patient Relations Division.

We encourage you to contact the Health PEI Patient Experience/Patient Relations Office if you are unable to resolve your feedback through Option # 1.

What can I expect when I share feedback?

  • We will listen and respond with privacy and respect 
  • We will gather information and investigate if you have a concern 
  • A response will be provided

There is no time limit to sharing your feedback. Once we receive your feedback, it is reviewed and acknowledged within 72 hours (or 3 business days). If you have a concern, it will be reviewed by the Patient Experience/Patient Relations Office and then assigned to the appropriate Health PEI programs and services managers/designate to work with you to reach a resolution.

Will things become worse for me if I provide feedback?

No. Your feedback is important to us and is seen as an opportunity to improve services and/or share your experiences with our staff, physicians and volunteers. Health PEI values your input and is committed to addressing concerns in a fair and objective manner.
