What Is the HCPC?
The HCPC (Health & Care Professions Council) registration is a legal requirement for healthcare professionals. The council acts as a regulator to protect the public and ensure that professional standards are met. It maintains a register of professionals who meet these standards.
Oversight and Education
The HCPC monitors and approves education and training programmes to ensure that standards are met and maintained. They also assess the eligibility of individuals and maintain the professional register.
Standards for Professionals
All healthcare professionals on the HCPC register must meet the standards for their training, professional skills, and behaviour. They are also expected to treat individuals with respect, honesty, and ensure patient safety at all times.
