Also, as part of a wider Vetting & Barring Scheme to assess the risk of harm that a person may present to vulnerable persons we are required to undertake an Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) check through the Criminal Records Bureau to ensure satisfactory registration with the ISA of any person who is a Care Manager or Domiciliary Care Worker. This means that if your application is successful we will obtain from the Criminal Records Bureau a Criminal Record Certificate relating to you before your appointment is confirmed.
Having a criminal record will not necessarily bar you from working with us. This will depend upon the nature of the position and the circumstances and background of your offences. We observe the “Code of Practice for Registered Persons and Other Recipients of Disclosure Information” published by the Criminal Records Bureau on behalf of the Home Office and we will provide you with a copy of it upon request.
You are required to pay a ten pound administration fee before your application will be sent if you are a successful candidate.
