The Government is considering merging the nine regulators into one, which would be responsible for registering all healthcare professionals and carrying out disciplinary procedures. There are also rumours of the GMC and NMC merging and Pharmacists, Dentists and opticians would be merged. Nothing has been officially announced yet but we should watch this space. There is a need for harmonisation of standards, however the specific training needs and standards for each profession would have to be taken into consideration and the specific expertise of each regulator would hopefully not be lost.
The government is considering merging the Regulators!

From start to finish, they acted with professionalism and expertise; taking what at first seemed to be a tedious and daunting process and making it clear and easy to understand. Even after our successful registration, the consultant remained on hand to answer any outstanding questions and to ensure that we felt adequately prepared for a potential visit from the CQC.

Dawn ran a very informative session about GDP guidance and the role of the Responsible Person. This helped me understand further about my role as the Responsible Person and how to stay 100% compliant according to the guidelines. I also picked up key points on what to look for when looking at potential suppliers and warehouse facilities. All together an excellent session, worth every penny! Pharmaceutical Wholesaler Client
