Nurses agencies registration

With effect from 1st April 2003, the licensing and enforcement of nurses' agencies passed from the local authority to the new National Care Standards Commission (NCSC).

For more information please visit the National Care Standards Commission website.

Existing nurses' agencies will have their registrations transferred to the NCSC.

New providers of these services will be required to register with the NCSC before they can commence their operations.
