ISA registration or ISA Adult First?

We have received a number of queries regarding confusion over whether the ISA Adult First has been scrapped.

The confusion lies with the Criminal vetting review and their recent announcement that the requirement for all people working with vulnerable adults and children have a necessity to register with the Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA).

Just to clarify….

ISA stands for Independent Safeguarding Authority, for details of their role click here

ISA Adult First is a service exclusive to the health sector. Requests for ISA Adult First checks carry a strict criteria and are permissible only where it is necessary to take such action because of a real danger that staffing levels will fall below statutory obligations.
