Yes that's right as far as I know, risk assess, never leave alone with children. I'd also inform parents so they know the situation.
When my mother in law stayed after a major op 3 years ago I was told by Ofsted after enquiring that I needed to inform them. At the time there were people on the forum who were saying their visitors needed a dbs which is why I enquired. I just rang and gave her name and approx of how long she may be with us. I was sent a letter informing me that I must not leave children alone with her.
Not sure if anything has changed since.
Thank you x
