Professional regulation and patient safety systems: parallel planets or partners in improvement?
Content ArticleOver the past 15 years, Martin Fletcher has been part of transformational change in professional regulation through his tenure as Chief Executive of the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (Ahpra). In this blog for the hub, Martin shares Australia's regulatory journey and reflects on the UK's more gradual path to reforming their legislative frameworks. He highlights both countries' shared common goals and the challenges faced along the way. He ends the blog with three priorities for future action: integrating professional regulation into system safety, better use of data to anticipate risk and embedding equity and cultural safety.
