Agree with this high court ruling. I’m not aware of a national scope of practice for even doctors. There’s a student PA curriculum & minimum standards of competence for qualifying exams, but beyond that, health professionals are expected to develop post-qualification.
Regrettably the High Court has today ruled that the GMC isn't legally required to set a safe scope of practice for assistants.View quoted post on X
The GMC should take no comfort in this. Doctors are clear; without a national scope of practice patient safety is at risk.
We're considering next steps
