What is 'Voluntary Registration Scheme' (VRS)?
In September 2006, SWD set up a Registration Office of Private Residential Care Homes for Persons with Disabilities (ROPRCHD) and introduced a 'Voluntary Registration Scheme' (VRS) to encourage private residential care homes for persons with disabilities (private homes) to continuously improve their services. Officers from the ROPRCHD will inspect those private homes that have submitted applications to join VRS. If the applicants are found to be compliant with the requirements under VRS in terms of general management, fire safety, building safety and health care, their relevant information and the latest date of inspection by SWD will be uploaded onto this homepage and made accessible to the public for reference. To ensure that the service quality of private homes continuously meets the acceptable standards under VRS, SWD will conduct regular inspections of private homes after their registration.
The Director of Social Welfare may suspend the uploading of information of a private home onto this homepage or revoke its registration in any of the following circumstances:
| a. |
SWD confirms that the private home fails to meet the requirements under VRS, and no improvement has been made before a deadline; |
| b. |
the private home refuses to let SWD staff in for inspection; |
| c. |
the operator of the private home withholds information or fails to notify SWD immediately that the home has been sold or renamed; |
| d. |
the private home or its management has contravened the law or is being prosecuted; or |
| e. |
the service quality or management style of the private home is not acceptable to SWD. |
The Residential Care Homes (Persons with Disabilities) Ordinance ( 'the Ordinance' ) has come into operation on 18 November 2011. With the implementation of the licensing scheme, the Voluntary Registration Scheme has ended. Under the Ordinance, operators of all the residential care homes for persons with disabilities must apply for a licence or certificate of exemption.
