All Care should all be at the same (high) standard

All domiciliary care workers in Wales will need to be registered from 2020 before they can work in the social care sector, with adult residential care workers to follow in 2022.  Currently, social workers, social work students, residential child care managers & workers, adult care home managers & domiciliary care managers are required to register in order to work in the sector.

The new arrangements for the registration of domiciliary care workers will be made possible by the Regulation and Inspection of Social Care (Wales) Bill, which is currently before the National Assembly. They will come into force in April 2017, if the Bill becomes law.
