What Checks Are Involved?

To work in the healthcare sector in the UK, candidates must go through extensive background checks to ensure that Healthcare professionals are held to high standards of conduct and ethics.

UK law and various regulatory bodies, such as the Care Quality Commission (CQC), require healthcare providers to conduct specific background checks. Compliance with these guidelines helps organisations avoid legal issues, fines, and potential closure due to non-compliance.

Are You Compliant?

In the UK healthcare sector, background checks are a crucial part of ensuring the safety and integrity of services. The checks required for individuals working in healthcare include the following:

  • DBS Enhanced Check: This is the most thorough check, providing details of spent and unspent convictions, cautions, reprimands, final warnings, and any information held by local police that is considered relevant to the role.
  • DBS Enhanced with Barred Lists: This check includes everything in the Enhanced DBS check, plus a check against the barred lists for work with children and/or vulnerable adults.
  • Right to Work Check: Verifying that the applicant has the legal right to work in the UK, typically by checking documentation such as passports, visas, or biometric residence permits.
  • Identity Verification: This involves verifying the candidate’s identity through documents such as a passport, driving license, or utility bills.

Why Adopt The Healthcare Vetting Guidelines?

Patient Safety

The primary reason for healthcare vetting is to protect patients, particularly vulnerable groups like children, the elderly, and those with disabilities.

Improving Healthcare Outcomes

By ensuring that only qualified and suitable individuals are employed in healthcare, the overall quality of care improves, leading to better patient outcomes and overall public health.

Protecting the Workforce

Vetting not only protects patients but also the existing workforce. Ensuring that new hires are of good character and competence helps create a safer and more professional work environment.
