HCPC is delighted to announce the appointment of Andrew Smith as their new Executive Director of Regulation.

We’re currently reviewing the standards of education and training to make sure they're up-to-date. We invite all patients, service users, patient groups and representatives to an online workshop to share their thoughts, needs and experiences.

Our changes set out a process for registrants to follow when things go wrong which better aligns with our guidance.

Blog by Katherine Timms, Head of Policy and Standards, explaining how professionals on our register can use social media appropriately.

We have improved the central role of the service user, including a focus on valid consent and effective communication. This is one theme within the key changes to the updated standards of proficiency for all professions. 

Our registrants must treat service users, carers and colleagues with respect and dignity, and maintain appropriate professional boundaries.

This consultation sought to enable people living with aphasia and their carers to be meaningfully involved in evaluating the standards of conduct, performance and ethics set by HCPC and to provide feedback, based on their own experiences, which may inform changes to the standards.

This research focuses on registrants and service users with the remit to explore their views on the content and accessibility of the standards.

The second in a series of research reports on the regulation of the health professions registered with the HPC.
