HCPC revised standards of conduct, performance and ethics and guidance

02/09/2024

 

 

The HCPC's revised standards of conduct, performance and ethics and guidance came into effect on 1 September 2024.
 
The standards of conduct, performance and ethics set out, in general terms, how the HCPC expect registrants to behave. They outline what the public should expect, help to make decisions about the character of professionals who apply to register and are used if someone raises a concern about a registrant’s practice.
 
The HCPC website has information and support for registrants, employers, applicants and learners, as well as clear guidance on what in the standards has been updated.
