Check the NISCC Register

You can use this public register to check whether a social care worker’s registration is valid and appropriate for their job or if it has been granted with any conditions. The absence of a record does not necessarily mean that the worker is not registered. Please contact our registration team on 028 9041 7633 or email registration@nisocialcarecouncil.org.uk if you do not find the worker you are looking for.

You may also need to check the Changes to the Register section which provides details on any conduct hearings where a social care worker has been admonished, suspended or removed from the register. Details from all conduct hearings are available from the Conduct section.

You can search by name, town where the social care worker is currently employed, or by social care registration number. To refine your search results you just fill in more than one field.

You can only search the register for Northern Ireland on this website - use one of the following links to search England, Scotland or Wales
