core regulatory and enabling functions

The Board continues to seek opportunities to improve health practitioner regulation across
its five core regulatory functions.

• Professional standards – Developing policy and position statements to the profession
and sector to meet the accountabilities of the Act

• Registration – Making sure only health practitioners with the skills, qualifications and
suitability to provide safe care to the New Zealand community are registered to practise

• Complaints and Notifications – Managing concerns raised about the health,
performance and conduct of individual practitioners

• Compliance / Recertification – Monitoring and auditing ensures practitioners are
complying with Board requirements

• Accreditation – Ensuring that individuals who are qualified for general registration
in the profession have the knowledge, skills and professional attributes necessary to
practise their profession.

We have also been focussing on the enabling functions of the Secretariat: management,
Board governance, financial management, people, technology management, information
management and reporting, legal services and communication.

These functions continue to provide a focus for operations including improved measurement
and accountability.
