The British Chiropractic Association (BCA) is the largest and longest-standing association for chiropractors in the UK. With a mission to prioritize patient care, the BCA recently launched its Patient Charter as part of its ongoing Repositioning Project. This charter serves as a transparent agreement between patients and BCA chiropractors, ensuring the delivery of patient-centered, evidence-informed care at all times.

The Patient Charter is a pledge from BCA chiropractors to their patients, highlighting the high quality of care they can expect. It emphasizes that chiropractic is a strongly regulated and rigorous profession, subject to strict codes of practice, much like dentistry and medicine. By dispelling misconceptions and myths about chiropractic, the charter aims to promote a better understanding of the profession.

The BCA's Repositioning Project has been instrumental in transforming the healthcare landscape, and the Patient Charter is the second phase of this project. The BCA will continue its work into 2023 to further enhance its standards and communication with patients. With a focus on raising awareness about the profession's rigor, relevance, and evidence-based practices, the BCA is committed to ensuring chiropractic becomes more integrated into mainstream healthcare
