Our Standards

Our Standards encourage good practice. We develop standards for regulators and accredited registers to meet. We use them when we review the performance of regulators and accredit registers. 

We also have a role in promoting good regulation and good governance and have produced guidance for Boards and those making appointments.

We also publish good practice guidance for professionals and others. 

  • Standards of Good Regulation - we use these in our performance reviews of regulators
  • Standards for Accredited Registers - we use these when deciding whether to accredit
  • Standards for members of NHS Boards and Clinical Commissioning Groups
  • Good practice in making Council appointments
  • Sexual boundaries guidance for professionals and public

We are strengthening our approach to EDI with the organisations we oversee
