CRB Police Checks for Care Home Staff
The Care Standards Act 2000 regulations become
mandatory on the 1st June 2004.
The regulations require Care Home Staff to undergo
criminal record checks through the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB).
All Care Home managers, supervisors and staff require
disclosures.
As part of the disclosure process, the POVA list
will be checked by the CRB, then the results of that check are recorded on the
disclosure.
If a worker is due to start before the disclosure
is issued (an enhanced disclosure takes 4 weeks), then a POVA Fast Track check
must be carried out first. This takes around 2 days. Please phone our Help Desk to find out more about this service.
