Guest guest Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 DCP own a practice : yes they can own a practice as long they are registerd with GDC. " DCP's can " undertake the business of dentistry "and own practices, employ dentists" Aim of GDC : GDC here to protect patients and maintain standards in the profession. One of the ways we do this is to register appropriately qualified or experienced dental professionals who want to work in the UK. This registration entitles you to practise dentistry in the UKThe GDC has a legal responsibility under the Dentists Act 1984 to check the quality of all dental and dental care professional (DCP) education and training courses which lead to registration.The aim of the GDC quality assurance (QA) process is to check whether courses meet the GDC Learning Outcomesfor the relevant registrant categories. The QA process involves:• reviewing proposals for new courses and qualifications from course providers and awarding bodies;• inspecting the course providers and awarding bodies; and• monitoring course providers and awarding bodies every year.All applications for new courses and awards and all inspection reports are considered by the Registrar. The Registrarmay seek advice from subject expert registrants, if required. The Registrar decides whether a course or award shouldbe accepted for registration, though some decisions may be referred to the Council of the GDC.CPD hour requirement-150 every 5 year ,50 must be verifiable that is for the DCP what about dentists?GDC introduced compulsory continuing professional development for dentists in January 2002. By law, Dentist must take part in CPD scheme.CPD helps to keep up public confidence in the dental register by showing that dentists stay up to date so they can give their patients the best possible treatment.Dentist first five-year CPD cycle will begin on 1 January in the year after you first register, unless you were already on the register before 1 January 2002. In this case please check the guidance boooklet for further information.Dentist need to carry out at least 250 hours of CPD every five years. At least 75 of these hours need to be ‘verifiable’ CPD.dentist should carry out verifiable CPD in recommended subject areas as part of the 75-hour minimum amount explained further in guidance.
