Closed petition Establish an independent body to investigate parental concerns about NHS care
Parents can sometimes find themselves in dispute with NHS health professionals over the best care for their children. There should be an independent body that parents can go to, which can investigate their concerns.
More details
If parents challenge NHS care, it can sometimes end up with the hospital raising concerns with social services. This can put parents in a very difficult position where they feel that they can't fight for what they believe is the best care for their child. An independent body for parents to turn to in these situations is needed.
