Disclosure and Barring Service
GFI can provide a Disclosure and Barring Service check for its Employees, Volunteers, Members and Associates, including OTs and other health and social care professionals in Independent Practice who successfully register with us as Associates. To be on our register a person or organisation will go through a formal assessment process and will need to provide evidence of professional practice where appropriate.
Disclosure and Barring checks are essential for OTs and others working in the community with children and young people, vulnerable adults and older people.

If you (or your Company) are a member of the GFI Association we can now process your DBS Check application forms.

If necessary we will set up a webcam to verify your identity. This procedure has been agreed with the DBS as GFI takes responsibility for confirming that your details and identity are correct.
