The Care Council has legal powers to set the standards workers need to meet, and to take action where that doesn’t happen.
It aims to safeguard the general public by:
• keeping a register of social workers, social care managers and workers, and social work students;
• investigating cases where the standards set for the workforce may not have been met;
• taking the most serious cases of where standards have not been met before independent panels;
• imposing a range of sanctions to protect the public from harm;
• analysing information, and planning for a workforce that can meet the needs of the public;
• developing the professionalism of managers and workers, mainly through qualifications, training, knowledge-sharing and continuous professional development.
In a nutshell, the Care Council has a leadership role in developing confident and competent workers in social services and childcare, who can operate effectively and confidently, making well-informed judgements, based on up-to-date evidence, in the best interests of people they work with.view less
