The registration of a CARE PROFESSIONAL with a PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION BODY.

A CARE PROFESSIONAL may hold several PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATIONS with the same PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION BODY, where the PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION BODY holds a REGISTER with several parts. A CARE PROFESSIONAL may also hold a PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION with different PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION BODIES. Each PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION will be separately identified by its PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION TYPE. PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATIONS may be held concurrently, or may supersede each other.

In specific professions, a CARE PROFESSIONAL must have successfully completed a recognised or accredited training programme, and have applied to the relevant PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION BODY in order to be registered as able to practice.

For certain POSITIONS within an ORGANISATION providing health care SERVICES, it is mandatory for a CARE PROFESSIONAL who is an EMPLOYEE to hold a PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION of a given PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION TYPE, or from a list of PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION TYPES (as multiple PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION TYPES may be acceptable for the POSITION).

A PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION must be maintained in accordance with the requirements of the PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION BODY.
