The most recent performance assessment report regarding the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) has been published by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA) today.
Bernie O’Reilly, Chief Executive and Registrar, commented:
“We welcome this year’s annual performance review from the Professional Standards Authority which shows that we have met 17 out of the 18 Standards of Good Regulation.
This review reflects the progress we have made through continuing to build on improvements across each of our core functions.
We’re particularly pleased to see the review acknowledge our work on EDI, data and research, and sexual safety as areas of good practice.
However, there is still more to be done. We will continue our work to target achieving all five of the PSA’s fitness to practise standards. We welcome the regulatory reform recently announced by the Government, which will be a key step in helping us to improve the timeliness of our FTP processes.
We remain firmly committed to our ongoing investment and to continuous improvement across all areas of our organisation, putting public protection at the heart of everything we do”.
