To ask Her Majesty’s Government on what basis the Independent Safeguarding Authority is able to establish if an individual poses a risk of harm to vulnerable groups, if there is no requirement to train, register or regulate individual healthcare workers.[HL1374]
To ask Her Majesty’s Government on what basis the Independent Safeguarding Authority is able to establish if an individual poses a risk of harm to vulnerable groups, if there is no requirement to train, register or regulate individual healthcare workers.[HL1374]
The Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) does not train or regulate healthcare workers. The ISA's role is to make independent, fair, consistent and proportionate barring decisions about people who work in certain roles in health and social care who may pose a risk of harm to vulnerable groups.
The ISA has a five stage decision-making process. Once the ISA has established that there is a case to answer it uses a structured judgment process, developed by the ISA board, to determine whether there is a risk of harm to children or vulnerable adults.
This assessment takes into account factors including the training a person has received, their experience, any relevant qualifications, time in the post, requirements of the post, any information already held by the ISA about that person, as well as behavioural factors.
If, after the assessment, the ISA is “minded to bar” the person, the person will be given the opportunity to make representations as to why they should not be barred. After any representations are made, the ISA will take a final decision as to whether it is appropriate to bar the person.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many health care assistants have been banned from working with patients for failing their duty of care towards patients or clients in each of the past 10 years. [HL1143]
The department does not hold information on the number of healthcare assistants that have been banned from working for failing in their duty of care.
The role of the Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) is to establish if an individual poses a continued risk of harm to vulnerable groups. If this risk is established then the ISA can bar an individual from working in certain roles in health and social care including health care assistant roles.
The ISA is reliant on the job title provided by organisations and this can differ widely between employers and across the sectors. Therefore being precise about the number of health care assistants who have been barred is not possible.
In 2011 there were 115 cases referred to the ISA where the individual’s job role was described as healthcare assistant. All of these were considered for barring, with five individuals subsequently being barred.
However, in the same period the ISA concluded over 1,800 cases where the individual was described as being “in a care or support role within a health or social care setting”, 245 of these cases resulted in the individual being barred.
