Summary

C complained about the care and treatment they received from the board for their hearing problems, and for their problems of dizziness/loss of balance.

We took independent advice from an ear nose and throat (ENT) specialist. We found that C's hearing problems were investigated appropriately and they were given multiple repeated investigations. We also found that appropriate steps were taken to investigate C's problems of dizziness/loss of balance. Therefore, we did not uphold C's complaints.
