Case study: A psychologist’s employer raised concerns that the registrant had taken a service user on a trip involving an overnight stay in a shared hotel room, bought the service user alcohol and appeared to be under the influence of alcohol in the presence of the service user.

Some of the questions we most frequently get asked by registrants

Information on the specific sections of our standards, and how to meet them.
