Qualification criteria - manager of adult day care services
To register with the SSSC you need to be employed in a service that is registered with and regulated by the Care Inspectorate. If you are unsure whether you are eligible for registration, speak to your manager.
The SSSC operates a function based register. This means that workers are registered on the basis of their job function, not their job title. You need to be employed to undertake the function for which you seek registration.
Managers of adult day care services are now required by Scottish Government to be registered with the SSSC.
Managers new to post have six months from the date they start in the post to gain registration with the SSSC.
What happens if you don't register?
If you fall into this group you must be registered with the SSSC or be registered with another regulatory body by the date of required registration. If you don't it will mean your employer will be committing an offence.
