Find out more about CNHC’s Accreditation by the Professional Standards Authority for Health and Social Care (PSA). CNHC has been approved as the holder of an Accredited Voluntary Register (AVR) by PSA. All CNHC registered practitioners are now on our Accredited Voluntary Register and can use the revised CNHC quality mark to demonstrate this. PSA is the independent government-appointed body that oversees and scrutinises the work of the nine statutory health and care regulators, and is also responsible for the new scheme of Accredited Voluntary Registers. Accreditation means that CNHC has met the PSA’s demanding standards. This reinforces the confidence that the public, employers and healthcare commissioners can have in choosing CNHC registered practitioners. We are aware that this can be confusing so here we dispel some of the myths about PSA accreditation: • PSA accreditation is not regulation. PSA is not a regulator and having PSA accreditation does not make an organisation a regulator. CNHC is already a regulator. • PSA does not accredit individual practitioners. PSA accredits organisations. • PSA does not endorse any treatment or service. • PSA does not hold a register of individuals. It holds a directory of organisations that have been accredited. CNHC is on this directory. To find out more about CNHC’s PSA accreditation click here: tinyurl/nmhocn3
