Social Worker Alleged To Have Engaged In ‘Inappropriate Relationships’

A hearing into the conduct of a Registered Social Worker from Rochdale will be held from 4 September 2007 until 7 September 2007 by the social care workforce regulator for England, the General Social Care Council (GSCC).

The registrant is alleged to have committed misconduct and breached the GSCC’s Code of Practice for Social Care Workers by engaging in inappropriate relationships with service users.

All Registered Social Workers are accountable for their conduct and practice.  Action can be taken if they breach the code of practice.  They can be removed from the Social Care Register if it is considered that they are no longer suitable to be a Registered Social Worker.
