should enable it to satisfy itself of the suitability of anyone who acts for it?

Rachel Donnelly, Course Information Editor. That phrase relates to statutory duty, not the OTHM Level 5 Diploma. It is a legal requirement for UK care providers to ensure staff suitability, often checked via DBS and references. The Level 5 Diploma in Health and Social Care Management Online (RQF, 120 Credits) teaches you how to implement these checks. You will learn recruitment law, safeguarding, and workforce management in units like Leading and Managing a Health and Social Care Team. This knowledge helps you satisfy regulatory bodies like the CQC. The course does not perform background checks for you. It equips you with the management skills to verify staff suitability legally and ethically. You apply this in written assignments, not exams.
