STUDENT COMPLAINT AND GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE

Best Care College makes every effort to provide a supportive environment and respects the rights of all students. It is the college's practice to address the concerns of any complainant fairly and objectively in an attempt to equitably resolve his or her grievance.

A student should first bring a grievance to their instructor or to the immediate supervisor of the individual against whom the complaint is being made. For example, if you have a complaint against an instructor, you should bring the concern to the Director. If the concern is not resolved or if the student is dissatisfied with the resolution of the concern, he/she may submit a written complaint to the Grievance (Appeals) Committee, whose three members are appointed by the College CEO/College Director or his/her designee. If the student feels the complaint is not resolved by the committee to the student's satisfaction, the student may pursue his or her grievance up to the level of Best Care College's CEO/College Director. If the student's complaint is against the CEO/College Director, the student may lodge a complaint directly with the Best Care College Board of Directors through the Director of Corporate Compliance at jean.plaisir@bestcarecollege.edu.

A student has five (5) school days from the time the concern arose to begin this procedure. The college has ten (10) business days in which to attempt to resolve it unless additional time is reasonably needed. The student will be advised of the college's need for additional time and the reason. If the complaint is not resolved to the student's satisfaction after exhausting the college's grievance procedure, the student may file a formal, written complaint with the New Jersey Board of Nursing, the Office of the Secretary of Higher Education (NJ) or with both. Contact information for each of these agencies is listed below.
