The HCPC has updated its standards of proficiency for the first time since 2015. The crucial changes have been made following an extensive period of engagement with a wide range of stakeholders, to seek views and develop standards in line with current professional practice.

What the key changes are, why they’ve been made and how to find out more

Planned changes to the paramedic education threshold have now come into force. This follows on from our consultation and decision by our Council to increase the threshold to degree level in 2018.

There's just one week until 1 September 2023, when the updated HCPC standards of proficiency come into effect. We encourage all registrants to ensure they understand the updates and are ready to integrate them as far as they relate to their scope of practice. 

Luke McAndrew is a recent graduate and newly qualified paramedic.

Aim: Enable our professions to meet our standards so they are able to adapt to changes in health and care practice delivery, preventing harm to service users.
