This includes verifying identity documents, confirming right‑to‑work status, carrying out enhanced DBS checks and gathering detailed clinical references. We also verify qualifications, confirm NMC or relevant professional registration and ensure all mandatory training is fully up to date.

We carefully review each worker’s background, clinical competencies and confidence level before assigning them to a complex care environment.

Yes. As a [SERVICE] in Canterbury, we complete a full Neuven audit every single year to ensure our compliance processes remain exact, transparent and completely aligned with the highest standards in the healthcare staffing industry.
Neuven’s audit is extremely detailed and looks at every aspect of how we recruit, check, document and monitor the clinicians and care staff we supply.
They review our DBS processes, identity checks, right‑to‑work procedures, training records, occupational health documentation and the way we maintain files long term.
Achieving Neuven‑level compliance means that our internal systems have been independently verified against one of the strictest auditing frameworks available.
