This policy applies to all members, working both in the NHS, social care sector, education, independent practice, and voluntary organisations. If you are working in independent practice the guidelines for independent practice should be read, and any requirements met – such as professional indemnity insurance and establishing clinical trustees. Likewise, if you are working within an organisation such as the NHS that has stipulated mandatory training in terms of returning to work, this must also be fulfilled.
