Standards in practice: being open when things go wrong

The duty of candour is important for anyone working in health and care, but what does it mean in practice?

FAQs on record keeping

We get many questions about record keeping from registrants. This page runs through the most common questions and signposts to other sources of advice

Standards

Our standards form the foundation for how we regulate, explaining what we expect of our registrants and education and training programmes. 

Partner roles

There are a wide range of different partner roles that provide the expertise we need for our decision making processes.

Confidentiality and accountability

You need to make informed and reasonable decisions about your own practice to make sure that you always respect and protect the confidentiality of service users

Preceptorship for registrants working outside the NHS, including as sole practitioners

We recognise that many HCPC registrants are employed or work outside the NHS structures, where preceptorship is less well known and may be more difficult to access.

Be visible, engaged and informed

Aim: We regulate, take and communicate decisions which are informed by a deep understanding of the environment within which our registrants, employers and education providers operate

Our requirements if you are returning to practice

Our return to practice requirements are flexible, minimum requirements. They aim to protect the public by making sure you have up-to-date knowledge and skills.

Supervision templates

Our supervision templates provide some examples of how you might want to structure your supervision sessions and the types of conversations you could have.

Student competition

Each year, we run a competition for students who, at the time of entry, are enrolled on an HCPC-approved pre-registration programme.

Diversity data

Our dashboard shows key equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) information with regards to the characteristics of HCPC registrants
