myHCPC app delivers standards and guidance to registrants on the go

A new app developed by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) delivers standards and guidance to registrants at the touch of a button.

Created specifically with health and care professionals in mind, key features include mobile-friendly access to HCPC standards; guidance on HCPC registration; resources for registrants; plus the latest social media content via YouTube, Twitter and Facebook.

The application is free to download and available for both Apple and Android smartphones and tablets.

The launch of myHCPC follows the HCPC’s first mobile app introduced in 2011. Aimed at the general public and enabling service users to learn more about how to raise a concern, this app allows instant access to the HCPC Register on the go.

Tony Glazier, web and digital manager of the HCPC, said:

‘The myHCPC app has been created especially with registrants in mind. It delivers our standards in a mobile format, as well as guidance relating to CPD and registration at the touch of a button. We want to encourage professionals to download the app to make it your HCPC.’
