For all your CRB Disclosure needs, speak to one of our professional advisors today on
0113 3440192.
Medilink Nursing GUARANTEE, every application received will be processed and sent to the CRB the same day.
The Criminal Records Bureau takes around 4 weeks to process an application, (please note this could vary according to each individual Police Authority). The applicant will receive a disclosure certificate sent directly to their address; Medilink Nursing will also receive a certificate which we forward to the client.
There are a number of benefits to accessing CRB checks via an Umbrella Body. These are:
The Umbrella Body acts as an interface between your organisation and the CRB so that you can concentrate on your own business.
The Umbrella Body will administer the process and acquire the CRB check on your organisation's behalf.
Umbrella Bodies are able to offer a great deal of experience in handling and processing CRB checks that can pay dividends in ensuring that the check is completed as quickly as possible.
You may only require a small number of checks per annum and cannot meet the threshold requirements or the terms for direct registration.
You may require help and assistance in order to comply with certain obligations contained in the CRB's Code of Practice.
You might lack the necessary administration resource or the relevant expertise in handling criminal record information.
Each Disclosure will show the date on which it was provided. The older the Disclosure the less reliable it becomes. However, there is currently no expiry date printed on the form. Please note that Nursing Agencies would need to renew CRB applications on a yearly basis in accordance with CQC guidelines. Other organisations would need to discuss it with their Head Office, to establish how frequently they would need to do their checks.
Registering with our service is quick and easy.
The registered manager should complete the nominated signatory registration documentation, sign the "umbrella service" contract and return to Medilink Nursing in order for us to setup your account.
The applicant will receive their copy by post directly form the CRB.
A copy will also be sent to the Umbrella Body (Medilink Nursing) who then forward it immediately on receipt to the employing organisation.
