NASRHP Self-Regulating Health Profession Certifying Entity Membership Standards (Australia) S2: Standard 2: Maintain an assessable, public code of conduct that practitioners must declare compliance with

A code of conduct must be in place and compliance must be a mandatory part of keeping certification and of showing fitness to practise. The code must carry essential definitions, a statement of its purpose within self-regulation, the attitudes and expectations of a practitioner (with limited technical detail), a reference to scope, principles that can be assessed and tie to the complaints process, a defined review period and robust review process, principles of culturally safe and responsive practice, a requirement to practise ethically and to do continuing professional development, and a requirement to follow Commonwealth and State or Territory law. Practitioners must declare they understand and comply at initial certification and recertification, the entity must monitor compliance, plain English is encouraged, and guidance and all information must be public and easy to reach on the entity's website.
