- bias, partiality
- neglect, inattention
- delay
- abuse of power
- incompetence, ineptitude
- perversity, rudeness
- unwillingness to treat the resident as a person with rights
- refusal to answer reasonable questions
- neglecting to inform a complainant about rights or entitlement, including appeal routes
- knowingly giving misleading or inadequate advice
- offering no redress
- faulty procedures
- failure by management to adequately monitor compliance with procedures
- failure to reduce the effects of rigid adherence to the letter of the law where that produces inequitable results.
Some topics cannot be investigated, e.g. court cases.
