I am really so sick of the extent to which the HCPC @The_HCPC does not care EVEN REMOTELY about those it regulates. I have a #FitnessToPractise case going on since September 2020 - nearly 4 years hanging over the registrant & putting them at significantly increased risk of death by suicide. Got invited to a short hearing on the case this week. I say "Is this an error, I'm not aware of any upcoming hearing?". Response - "Oh the HCPC decided to discontinue the case against your client, it's just that nobody bothered to tell him. Or you. The hearing is for the HCPC's discontinuance application". There are multiple stages to deciding to discontinue, making that application & arranging a hearing. The registrant is of so little importance to the HCPC that nobody, at any point in the process, thought to inform the registrant himself that his ordeal would be coming to an end. This says EVERYTHING about the HCPC's toxic attitude to registrants, which runs right through the FtP process.
