Raise a concern (registered practitioner)
Raising a concern about a colleague
Under Section 45 of the Act, if you are a registered health practitioner, you are obliged to inform the Council if you believe that another registered health practitioner has a mental or physical condition which impacts on their competence to practise in medical laboratory science or anaesthestic technology.
If a concern has been raised about you
When the Council receives a complaint about you they may decide to:
- refer you for a competence review
- refer the matter to a professional conduct committee
- order you to undergo a medical examination or testing
- establish a competence programme
- establish an individual recertification programme
- apply an interim suspension (in certain circumstances)
- apply an interim condition on your scope of practice, or
- take no further action
