CFW welcomes 'portable' CRB checks move

CARE Forum Wales has welcomed the news that CRB checks for care staff are set to become 'portable' - saving care workers and their employers from re-applying and waiting for a CRB check every time an individual moves jobs.

The new regulations are set to take effect soon - details will follow for CFW members in our forthcoming series of Essential Update seminars - following a long campaign by CFW and other care sector organisations to streamline the CRB-checking process for staff with a valid, current check in place.

See website for list of seminars - to be announced soon.
