The international podiatry comparison study facilitated contacts with podiatrists in other countries.
There is a strong case for the provision of foot clinics with rheumatologist, orthotist, podiatrist and patient in dialogue at all stages of the assessment and prescription.
The research into the differentiation of podiatrist and foot care assistant roles has created openings for similar work within occupational therapy, intermediate care services and social care support workers.
In this group, the selfreported findings were supported by the professional assessments of podiatrists, though the reported nature of the foot problems differed between these two assessments.
Specifically, the research investigated the differentiation of podiatrist and podiatry assistant roles, their career development opportunities, training needs, and the position and role of research in their practice.
Chiropodists and podiatrists have been involved in developing the national service frameworks for older people and diabetes to ensure adequate standards for these services.
I am particularly concerned that there should be the ability to protect the title of chiropodist or podiatrist.
Chiropodists and podiatrists who meet the council's standards for registration will be recognised as state registered.
