The Professional Standards Authority consults on a new three-year strategic plan

08 Dec 2022

For the first time, the Authority is consulting on its strategic plan which will run from 2023-2026. This new approach will allow us to consider the views of stakeholders and enable us to set clearer, longer-term aims against which we will monitor progress and achievements.

Our consultation will run from 8 December 2022 to 24 February 2023.

How to respond

We welcome views on our proposed strategic plan. The deadline to respond is 24 February 2023.

You can find out more about the consultation here where you can view the strategic plan, download a response form or link to our online survey. Welsh versions are also available.  

You can also read our blog which explains why we have adopted this new approach.

Notes to the Editor

  1. The Professional Standards Authority for Health and Social Care oversees 10 statutory bodies that regulate health and social care professionals in the UK.
  2. We assess their performance and report to Parliament. We also conduct audits and investigations and can appeal fitness to practise cases to the courts if we consider that sanctions are insufficient to protect the public and it is in the public interest.
  3. We also set standards for organisations holding voluntary registers for health and social care occupations and accredit those that meet them.
  4. We share good practice and knowledge, conduct research and introduce new ideas to our sector. We monitor policy developments in the UK and internationally and provide advice on issues relating to professional standards in health and social care.
  5. We do this to promote the health, safety and wellbeing of users of health and social care services and the public. We are an independent body, accountable to the UK Parliament.
  6. Our values are – integrity, transparency, respect, fairness and teamwork – and we strive to ensure that they are at the core of our work.
