Case study: An occupational therapist's employer raised concerns with us after the registrant left a notepad containing confidential information, pertaining to a number of service users, at the home address of a service user.

There's just one week until 1 September 2023, when the updated HCPC standards of proficiency come into effect. We encourage all registrants to ensure they understand the updates and are ready to integrate them as far as they relate to their scope of practice. 

Professional bodies typically promote the profession, represent their members and provide curriculum frameworks, training and CPD.

Find out who won the HCPC student competition 2025, which asked students to design a learning session about speaking up and raising concerns.  

We have significantly expanded the role of equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI), placing specific importance on making sure that practice is inclusive for all service users. This is one theme within the key changes to the updated standards of proficiency for all professions. 

We are seeking the views of our stakeholders on our proposal to amend our Rules to give us the express power to hold hearings remotely.

The HCPC, in collaboration with eight other professional health and care regulators, has published the latest Whistleblowing disclosures report for 2024.

This paper presents highlights from our year in registration survey 2022 (formerly known as the new graduate survey), which seeks the views of those who have been HCPC-registered for a year about their education and training programme, how this prepared them to practice, and the first year in employment. 

If a concern is raised or referral is made about a HCPC-registered professional, our fitness to practice investigations process will begin. This flowchart summarises the steps. 

This report explores the ethical experiences of practitioners working in health and social care professions and was commissioned by the Authority from Professor Deborah Bowman.

It is important that you get the service user’s permission, or ‘consent’, before you share or disclose their information or use it for reasons which are not related to the care or services you provide for them

To help us respond to your queries in a timely manner, it is important to direct your query to the appropriate department of the HCPC.
