Annual Renewal
In order to maintain your registration, you are required to renew on annual basis. Our Registration Year runs from 1st May to 30th April in any given year. As part of this process we ask you to do the following:
- Confirm the contact details we hold for you and make any required changes including address, email address & name
- State whether you perform any physiology service as a private practitioner and if so supply your indemnity policy number and expiry date
- Complete your annual declaration. This allows the RCCP to continue to check your health and character. This is to make sure that registrants can practice safely and effectively within their profession.
Private Practice and Indemnity Insurance
If you offer services privately, you must be covered by appropriate indemnity insurance. You must inform us if this is the case and supply your policy number and expiry date. This can be entered at any time using your registrants portal and accessing the "other" tab.
