High level principles of good practice expected of everyone when consulting and or prescribing remotely from the patient

The HCPC Professional Liaison Service was established in 2020 following a decision to invest in more upstream regulation. Upstream regulation describes an approach to regulation that is focussed on prevention, partnership and support.

We think that it’s important to further clarify within the standards that registrants do not need to stop practising simply because they have a physical or mental health condition.

We have emphasised the importance of registrants looking after their own mental health and seeking help where necessary as a part of maintaining their fitness to practise. This is one theme within the key changes to the updated standards of proficiency for all professions. 

We keep a Register of health and care professionals who meet our standards for their training, professional skills, behaviour and health

We are required to keep case records for a period of time once the case has ended. 

Our case studies illustrate the types of issues that are taken into consideration by a panel when deciding if a registrant’s fitness to practise is impaired

We produce reviews of the regulatory work we do in assessing and monitoring programmes

Our changes provide further guidance around scope of practice and highlight the need to make sure registrants have the knowledge, skills and experience to practise safely and effectively.
