SPONSOR LICENCE
Health and Care Worker Sponsor Licence
About Health and Care Worker Sponsor Licence
The Health and Care Worker sponsor licence lets eligible UK health and social care providers recruit doctors, nurses, allied health professionals and care workers from overseas. It is a sub-strand of the Skilled Worker route, with extra scrutiny because of the sector's public-protection role. The Home Office and the care regulator both watch sponsors closely, and compliance failures can have serious consequences for staff and service users. RakLAW Solicitors act for care providers and clinical organisations, building applications and compliance systems designed for this high-stakes sector.
