## Description

The Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) is a statutory body that supports the regulation and oversight of health professions in South Africa. Based in Arcadia, Pretoria, it provides information and online services for healthcare practitioners, the public, professional associations, and other stakeholders. Its resources explain professional scopes of practice, continuing professional development requirements, and ethical responsibilities for registered health professionals. The website also offers access to relevant legislation and guidance on information access and privacy through PAIA and POPIA manuals. Members of the public can search for or verify the credentials of practitioners registered with the HPCSA, and learn how to lodge complaints about alleged unprofessional conduct. The Council’s professional boards may investigate such complaints and impose penalties when warranted under the Health Professions Act. The HPCSA also provides channels for reporting suspected fraud, corruption, or irregularities involving employees or suppliers, stating that reports are investigated and that it maintains a zero-tolerance policy towards fraud and dishonesty.
