What is a DBS/ PVG check?
- A DBS, Disclosure and Barring Service check (previously known as CRB) is a certificate that ensures someone is suitable to be a carer and has not got a criminal record.
A PVG, Protecting Vulnerable Groups check is the Scottish version of DBS. It is a certificate that proves someone has no criminal record.
We make sure each Utmost carer has a recent DBS/PVG/Access NI before approving them onto our platform.
