What we do

How we operate and the important development work we want to achieve to progress our corporate strategy

What is the HCPC?

We have produced an animation to explain how we operate and how the HCPC benefits both registrants and service users

Duty of candour

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

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.

Recognising and acting on sexual misconduct

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