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.

You need to take all reasonable steps to protect information about service users. By ‘reasonable steps’, we mean that you need to take sensible, practical measures to make sure that you keep the information safe.

These standards set out, in general terms, how we expect our registrants to behave. We will use them if someone raises a concern about a registrant’s practice, and for decisions about the character of professionals who apply to our Register.

This section is for applicants who have previously been on the Register and would like to re-join it.

People on the HCPC’s Register must be able to communicate effectively in English in order to meet our standards of proficiency

A professional liaison group (or ‘PLG’) provides advice to the Council or committees on strategic issues. Either the Council, or a committee can decide to set up a PLG, to look at a specific issue and report back.

We've partnered with CiC, a leading wellbeing service provider, to give independent, confidential and free emotional support and practical advice to all HCPC registrants going through the FTP process.

We've compiled a list of top tips to help make the CPD auditing process as smooth as possible.

Information about the areas operating urgent support, and how you can contact us if your query falls into one of these.

Our guidance says you should use your “professional judgement” to come to decisions about what is and is not within your scope of practice (the limit of your skills, knowledge and experience). But what does this “professional judgement” look like in practice?

Our new whistleblowing policy provides guidance on what to do if you have a concern about wrongdoing in the public interest.

In this webinar we will explore how our standards and guidance require registrants to identify, acknowledge and respond appropriately to concerns about the safety and wellbeing of service users.
