DBS Adult First Checks are exclusively available to people working in adult care services, where DBS certificates are required by law.
The service is only available to organisations that are eligible to access the DBS adults’ barred list. This includes care homes, domiciliary care agencies and adult placement schemes.
It should only be used for prospective employees for whom an Enhanced Check with a check of the adults’ barred list has been requested – it cannot be requested separately.
