Our work with Accredited Registers

We accredit organisations holding registers of health and care practitioners not regulated by law, to give the public confidence in their services.

About the Accredited Registers programme

Health and care services are delivered by a mix of professions and practitioners working in different roles. Some of these roles are subject to statutory regulation while others are not.

To ensure that the public is protected some organisations hold registers (public lists) of people in those roles that can be checked by patients, service users and employers. Some of these registers are ‘statutory’ whilst others are ‘voluntary’.
