This is our first report looking at the work we do to uphold standards and protect people who use social care services.
This report captures the work we have done over the past five years to regulate the workforce, from assessing the suitability of someone to join the register to investigating complaints against a Registered Social Worker or student and taking action where misconduct is found. It examines the themes that have emerged and details how we are responding to them.For further information on upcoming hearings, or if you want to find out about previous hearingsA full list of code breaches to date can be found hereConduct report - Summary (PDF 272KB)Conduct Report - Main (PDF 319KB)
