What is the HPC?
A. HPC are the initials of the “Health Professions Council” (formerly CPSM), it is the regulatory authority that deals with applications for UK State Registration and grants eligible physiotherapists with a licence to practice. The HPC maintains a register of physiotherapists and also has disciplinary powers. It is, therefore, a legal requirement to obtain and maintain a licence to practice from the HPC.
