Dear Forum,

I understand that in UK where I presently live, a Foot Health Care Practitioner (FHCP) can get a qualification from SMAE or Stonebridge college and within in a few weeks begin attending to peoples feet.
So my question would be, is there any regulation as to who can attend to the feet of people living in Australia.
And would the FHCP be acceptable. Or does this depend on getting insurance. I appreciate they wouldn't have AHPRA rego.
Or would the practitioner need to do a further course at TAFE in Australia to be legal?
Incidentally the person in question is presently a falls assistant practitioner, and has been a Physio assistant for 19 years but has no paper qualifications as such.
Many thanks for any input.
