have my heart set on a career in nursing and was wondering if this could be a problem for me. 7 years ago there was an accident involving my baby son which led to Social Services intervention (for a long time). Basically my partner had dropped my son and his leg got broken. I WAS NOT in the room at the time and didn’t know exactly what had happened. I never will. My partner and I were cautioned etc but no charges were bought and i have no other cautions/convictions anything on my record. I know that this will show up on an enhanced check and i am worried that although i did nothing wrong this is going to affect me if i want to go into care work which i really do! I am also concerned that there is incorrect info on my CRB which shows me in a bad light. If so could i get this sorted out?! I’m very worried!! Sorry about the ramble!
Oh i forgot to mention i’m in the UK

If you were in the U.S I would say that you would show up on a background check, because here both parents are responsible for what one parent does, even if you didn’t know about it. Most states here will list your name in a registry of abuse and neglect, but many states limit the amount of time that your name is listed. I would say that you need to contact Social Services to see if your name is listed. Don’t panic, because there are often steps you can take to get your name off. If you can afford an attorney (or the UK equivalent), get one to help you through this.
