Remediation for Fitness to Practise

Course Description

Remediation for Fitness to Practise is a specialist CPD course designed for UK healthcare professionals who are facing a complaint, employer investigation, disciplinary process, or regulatory fitness-to-practise proceedings. The course provides structured guidance on designing, implementing, and evidencing meaningful remediation aligned with regulatory expectations.

Suitable for doctors, dentists, nurses, midwives, pharmacists, and allied healthcare professionals, this programme explains how regulators assess remediation, how to address root causes of concern, and how to demonstrate sustained behavioural change and reduced risk of repetition. Through practical frameworks and real-world application, participants develop defensible remediation plans that support public protection and professional rehabilitation.
