Complaints/Feedback

We value your feedback and want to make our service better. We would like your say on what you think about our services.

We welcome your feedback.

SECCA aims to be proactive in how we handle your feedback. The concerns and feedback of those who make up our community are important to us.

We strive to continue learning with and from our community to strengthen our work and knowledge.

You have choices on how you give us this feedback:

  • You can speak to the person at SECCA who gave you the service. This can often help to work through the problem in a fast way.
  • You can write to the SECCA Clinical or Executive Director.
  • You can complete the online form by clicking the button below.
  • You can download and fill out an online PDF copy of ‘Be Heard, Have Your Say’ and email it to us.
  • You can print a copy of ‘Be Heard, Have Your Say’ and give it to us. We also have copies available in our office in West Perth.

If this feedback process does not suit your needs, you can contact us for other options. We value all types of feedback.
