Critizising an HCPC Press Release

"The Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) is launching new research today which finds that a fifth of UK adults have encountered behaviour from a health or care professional that made them doubt their fitness to practise.

More than a quarter said the health or care professional in question seriously or persistently failed to meet standards whilst 16 per cent said they felt the professional failed to respect the rights of a patient to make their own choices. Thirteen per cent felt they were ‘hiding mistakes’ and a further nine per cent felt they were exploiting vulnerable patients. One in twenty said they had experienced or witnessed reckless or deliberately harmful acts."

So, HCPC, a member of the public that is not even qualified as a podiatrist, knows what the standards should be?!

There is respecting the rights of patients, but there are also cowboy customers!

There are also the idiots that want the cheapest! and show us no respect for all the training that we have to go through to qualify and maintain registration!

 

agree with you

 

The public seem to know better than us ??.
