While the Council serves as a forum for members to make suggestions and create solutions, it is not a venue for grievances or specific patient- or physician-related complaints. When issues in these areas arise as concerns, one of the McBride Orthopedic Hospital staff members on the Council will assist the member in finding the appropriate venue to address the issue. All grievances and complaints will be attended to using processes in place at McBride Orthopedic Hospital.
