Patients and their families and/or representatives are encouraged to be involved in their own care by reporting any safety concerns or any other healthcare issues in question. If you have concerns about your stay here, please tell us right away. Ask to speak to a director or their designee who can help with your concern. We want to hear from you. If you talk to a director or their designee and you still have a grievance, you, your family or representative may call:

The Patient Relations and Risk Coordinator at 218.736.8027.
The Quality Director at 218.736.8361.
