The Provision of Medical Assessment Services

As part of our responsibility to investigate concerns about Social Workers fitness to practise we may require Social Workers to undergo a Medical Assessment where concerns are raised about their health. Social Work England does not have the in-house capability to deliver specialist Services. Therefore, we are looking to contract with a Service Provider who will work in partnership with us deliver a robust Medical Assessment Service and provide quantifiable evidence as to whether a registrant's mental and/or physical health is of sufficient concern as to warrant their fitness to practise impaired.
