DHS Screening Unit — Working With Children Check (SA)
The DHS Screening Unit is the South Australian authority for the state's Working With Children Check. South Australia publishes no public validation page, so this source verifies a worker's SA check by signing in to the DHS Screening Unit portal on your behalf.
What Oho needs
You need the worker's full name, date of birth, and SRN or DCSI number. Oho confirms the current status — Not Prohibited, Cleared, Prohibited, or Expired — and the applicant type.
Setup and credentials
Yes, a portal login is required. You provide your DHS Screening Unit portal sign-in details when you set the source up, and Oho uses them to check on your behalf.
Linking
On the first successful match, Oho registers your organisation's interest with DHS on your behalf. Future status changes then show up in the portal's monitored list, and later scans read that list.
Good to know
Once connected, results come back within minutes.
