📣 All Allied Health Professionals practicing in Seychelles must hold a valid registration in accordance with the HPC Act.

As the new year begins, the updated list of registered Allied Health Professionals will be published in the Government Gazette.

Maintaining your registration is a professional and ethical responsibility that protects the public, upholds professional standards, and ensures your legal authority to practice. New applicants must also ensure they are registered before they begin practicing.

If your registration is due, or you're applying for the first time, please submit your application early to avoid delays, additional fees, or penalties.

For enquiries or assistance, contact us at registrarhpc@health.gov.sc or 4303745.

HPC Educational Meeting Insights (Praslin)
Shift 2: From Treatment to Prevention 💊➡️🚫

Our 'second shift' panel saw rich discussions, with presenters and panelists highlighting the preventive practices already happening in the Ministry of Health, even with limited manpower. Strong collaboration with other ministries is improving access to prompt district-level services.

As we shift toward prevention, challenges remain, especially patients’ willingness to seek services like Dental, Psychology, and Nutrition. Changing attitudes and improving compliance are key if patients are to safeguard their health.

Moving forward, continued collaboration, awareness of our service needs, and applying what we’ve learned will be essential for successful service delivery. 💬🤝

HPC Educational Meeting Insights (Praslin)
Shift 1: From Hospital to Community 🏥➡️🏘️

We had a very dynamic panel discussion on Praslin, and it was inspiring to hear about all the good practices happening here, especially around appointment management and smooth referrals between services.

Being a small community, they’re very aware of the unique challenges they face, particularly when it comes to infrastructure and ensuring confidentiality in the health care they provide. Their thoughtful recommendations really highlighted how important it is to adapt solutions to their specific context. 💬🤝

Let’s take a moment to appreciate these skilled professionals who make the invisible visible! 🔍🫶🏽
