Request for Tenders for the Provision of the Patient Advocacy Service on behalf of Department of Health

Department of Health

The Patient Advocacy Service (PAS) provides a free and independent national service to help service users making or intending to make a formal complaint, regarding the care they have received. PAS support complaints made through the Health Service Executive (HSE) "Your Service Your Say" process or other relevant complaints procedures. PAS also help those who have been involved in a patient safety incident as described in the HIQA / MHC National Standards for the Conduct of Review of Patient Safety Incidents. PAS was initially established for public acute hospital users, however since June 2021 the roll-out of its services to HSE operated nursing homes has begun. The next iteration of PAS will include expansion to private nursing homes and will progress expansion to the provision of advocacy in Mental Health Services, within the lifetime and cost of the contract.
