What you'll see

What happens when you check a carer

When you enter a valid QCAS ID, you’ll be able to view:

  • Whether the carer is currently approved
  • Status of identity verification
  • DBS check status
  • Training status (if applicable)
  • Insurance status (if applicable)

This helps you confirm key information before making decisions about care.
