The joint statement on the regulation of clinical physiologists highlights the committment of the four UK Health Departments to the regulation of healthcare scientists. Five groups of healthcare scientists, clinical perfusionists, clinical technologists, clinical photographers, maxillofacial prosthetic technologists and clinical physiologists have been recommended by the Health Professions Council to the Secretary of State for Health in England for statutory regulation. The four UK Health Departments will work with key stakeholders to achieve statutory regulation for these five groups of healthcare scientists for the purpose of improving public protection and patient safety.
