## Overview

Draft or update a complaints procedure for a designated centre aligned with HIQA standards.

## Getting Started

Add your source materials to the project workspace, then activate the *HIQA Designated Centre Complaints* skill. The agent will guide you through the process step by step.

## Example conversation

**You:** We need a complaints procedure for our designated centre for older people that meets HIQA and the regulations.

**Agent:** I'll use the NSSBH reference and HIQA Care Standards regulations for designated centres. I'll draft a procedure covering: how to make a complaint (accessible to residents and families); acknowledgment and timelines; investigation and response; escalation (person in charge, provider); learning; recording; and Ombudsman where applicable. I'll ensure it's accessible (e.g. easy-read, advocacy).

## Output excerpt

### Designated centre complaints procedure excerpt

**Making a complaint** — Residents, families, or representatives can complain in person, by phone, or in writing. Contact: [person in charge / complaints officer]. We will acknowledge within [X] days and respond within [Y] days. Advocacy support is available [reference].

**Escalation** — If you are not satisfied, the matter can be escalated to [provider / person in charge]. You may also contact the Ombudsman. A log of all complaints is kept and reviewed for learning.

## Extension and validation

This skill does not include custom validation tools. Elaboration is guided by the skill workflow and reference materials.
