Why State Registration?

It has long been recognised that the public is in a vulnerable position whilst relying on the services of a Healthcare Professional.

For this reason State Registration, through the "Council for Professions Supplementary to Medicine", was introduced for Therapeutic and Diagnostic Radiographers, as a means of ensuring that only suitably qualified and competent individuals are permitted to practice with in the United Kingdom.

After many years service, the CPSM has now officially handed over its statutory responsibilities to a new body - the Health Professions Council, Which now maintains the state register.

The HPC will review the State Registration of Practitioners regularly to ensure that only those individuals who are able to provide evidence of maintaining their professional competence through active Continual Professional Development (CPD) will remain on the list.

In order to assess the equivalence of foreign held qualification, it is necessary to first make an application to UK NARIC. UK NARIC - The National Academic Recognition Information Centre for the United Kingdom is managed by ECCTIS Ltd under contract to the Department for Education and Skills (DfES).

One of the primary purposes of the UK NARIC is to give information and advice on the comparability of overseas qualifications with those from the UK.

Although State Registration for Radiographers is clear cut; -(It is mandatory and severe penalties apply to both the practitioner and the employer if a Radiographer is working whilst not State registered) - the situation is less straightforward for State Registration of Sonographers.
