Article R1112-91 of the French Public Health Code

All users of a health care institution must be given the opportunity to express their grievances orally to the managers of the institution’s services. If this is not possible, or if they are not satisfied with the explanations they receive, they are informed that they have the option of either addressing a complaint or claim in writing to the legal representative of the institution, or of having their complaint or claim recorded in writing for the same purpose. In the latter case, a copy of the document will be issued to the patient without delay.

Article R1112-91

Tout usager d’un établissement de santé doit être mis à même d’exprimer oralement ses griefs auprès des responsables des services de l’établissement. En cas d’impossibilité ou si les explications reçues ne le satisfont pas, il est informé de la faculté qu’il a soit d’adresser lui-même une plainte ou réclamation écrite au représentant légal de l’établissement, soit de voir sa plainte ou réclamation consignée par écrit, aux mêmes fins. Dans la seconde hypothèse, une copie du document lui est délivrée sans délai.
