A hearing into the conduct of a Registered Social Worker from Pinner will be held from 29 October to 2 November by the social care workforce regulator for England, the General Social Care Council (GSCC).

The Registered Social Worker is alleged to have committed misconduct and breached the GSCC’s Code of Practice for Social Care Workers, which led to disciplinary proceedings by the registrant’s employer.

All Registered Social Workers are accountable for their conduct and practice. Action can be taken if they breach the code of practice. They can be removed from the Social Care Register if it is considered that they are no longer suitable to be a Registered Social Worker.
