Consumer Guide to the BSHAA Customer Care Scheme

BSHAA's Customer Care Scheme is all about re-assuring you that if you choose a scheme member, not only will  you be getting the benefit of their skill and experience but the re-assurance that if things don't go according to plan there is a procedure in place to help put it right.  Every business in the scheme has to have its own user-friendly complaints procedure and at the outset must give you a leaflet explaining how it works.   It will tell you how you can raise issues of concern and in what timescales the business will deal with your concerns.   In the unlikely event that this doesn't resolve your difficulties, you can then ask BSHAA to step in.

We promise we will deal responsively with any concerns you have about the product or service you have received from a member business and will provide free of charge, an independent conciliation service to seek a solution which is acceptable to you and the business.   If we can't, then we can offer independent arbitration which, if you accept, is binding on the business. 

As well as being members of the Customer Care Scheme some businesses have also joined the British Healthcare Trades Association and are therefore bound by the BHTA Consumer Code which has been approved by the Government through the BHTA Consumer Code which has been approved by the Government through the BHTA Consumer Code which has been approved by the Government through the Office of Fair Trading 

BSHAA Codes of Practice and HPC Fitness to Practice

If BSHAA has concerns about professional standards or a breach of its Code of Practice it will contact the business and/or dispenser, as appropriate, setting out BSHAA’s concerns and, when appropriate, refer any potential Fitness to Practice issues to the regulatory body, the Health Professions Council.
