100% SCAM First of all, no private employer can sponsor you for a visa. ONLY employers listed on the Home Office Register of Sponsors are allowed to employ non-EU workers http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/employers/points/sponsoringmigrants/registerofsponsors/ then on the right hand side under Related Documents, download the PDF Register of Sponsors - Employers These are the ONLY employers in the UK who can sponsor a foreign worker for a visa. If your employer is not listed the visa will never be approved as you are required to bring your employer's Certificate of Sponsorship to the British Embassy when you apply for a visa. Second, if you did not go to a nursing school in the EU, you cannot just work as a nurse in the UK, even as a private nurse, unless you have already completed a 20-day ONP (Overseas Nurses Programme) at an accredited school in the UK and are registered with the NMC. If you have not already lived in the UK where you attended an ONP then there is NO way you can get a visa to work as a nurse in the UK - every employer knows this. This would have been the first requirement in any legitimate job posting for a nurse. Third, if you are asked to SEND anything to the British embassy or anyone else, it's 100% a SCAM. Visas can only be applied for IN PERSON by YOU at the British embassy/consulate/high commission in YOUR country. So anyone asking you to contact some "embassy" or "agency" or "lawyer" by email with your documents or asking you to SEND money is always a scam. The ONLY way to get a visa is to go in person with your passport, original offer letter (must be mailed to your home, email/fax not accepted), copy of the employer's certificate of sponsorship (no certificate = no visa), application and supporting documentation. You will need to be fingerprinted and photographed at the embassy as part of the application process and you do not pay anything until you have actually handed in your documentation. DO NOT send these criminals any money or passport details - this is a long running scam If you need more proof it's a scam, write back to say that you just spoke to the Embassy and the embassy warned that there are a lot of job scams and to prove the are legitimate they must forward you a copy of their Certificate of Sponsorship that you will forward to the embassy for verification. If they say they don't have a certificate or that you need to pay for the certificate, you know it's a scam. An employer must hold a valid Certificate before they can even offer a job to a non-EU worker

It's a scam. You can't get a visa to be a carer or nurse at the moment.

You need to elaborate on your question, but I'll try and answer anyway. I have 10 years experience of working in residential and nursing homes for the elderly, and there are good ones out there. The main problem when looking for a suitable nursing home for your loved ones to live in is the media. Unfortunately it has been a long standing tradition amongst the media that bad news sells, so they report on the bad homes but in a generalised way. This makes it extremely difficult for people choosing a home, as they are all portrayed to be bad, with abuse and neglect rife amongst them. There are some good tips to choosing a home however:- When viewing a potential home don't make an appointment, just turn up. You'll catch the staff unawares and if there's anything they wouldn't want you to see they won't have a chance to cover it up. Visit the home at different times during the day, including meal times. This will give you a good idea of how the home is run, how capable the staff are, the types of meals served etc. Don't judge a home by it's decor, there are a few homes out there that pride themselves on appearances, with expensive decor and furniture, but these are not always the best ones to choose. They may be spending a lot cosmetically, but if the care isn't up to scratch then it's worth nothing. Talk to the other residents in the home, ask them if they are happy, if the staff are friendly, and if the food is good. Ask about activities, does the home provide trips out? Is there a recreational therapist at the home to stave away boredom? Find out about the laundry services, do the laundry staff repair clothes, like sewing buttons on etc. All very basic but very necessary if you want to choose a home with peace of mind.
