Does safe and effective healthcare matter to you? We want to hear from you!

Ahpra and the National Boards are consulting on proposed changes to the recency of practice and continuing professional development registration standards.

These standards exist to make sure that the practitioners that you rely on for safe and effective healthcare have practised in their profession recently and continue to develop their knowledge and skills throughout their career.

Your feedback will help make sure the standards support safe healthcare.

But if something feels off, or you have doubts about using your superannuation to pay for treatment, talk to a trusted family member, friend, carer, or financial counsellor.
