Salford, Greater Manchester
Healthcare assistants in Salford: the local picture
Social care for adults in Salford is arranged through Salford City Council. Most hospital services for the town are run by Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust. NHS Greater Manchester ICB plans and funds health services for the area. Local hospitals include Salford Royal Hospital.
Salford Royal Hospital is a major trauma centre for Greater Manchester and a regional centre for neurosciences, so healthcare assistants here often work on busy specialist wards as well as general medicine. The Northern Care Alliance runs the hospital, and care homes and home care providers across Salford and Eccles also take agency healthcare assistants.
What healthcare assistants need to work here
England has no compulsory register for care staff, so the checks we run carry the weight: right to work, an enhanced DBS check with the barred list check where the role needs it, two references and up to date mandatory training, all on file before a first shift.
Who inspects services in England
Care and health services in Salford are inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Each placement comes with the compliance file a provider needs to show its staffing checks at inspection.
