Good morning Doctor Pete. One example of good working practise does not constitute a healthy profession.In my experience, those who do provide such an example in their work go way beyond the guidelines issued by the Institute in question. Whilst I applaud the acceptance of standards across the board, I still maintain that there is absolutely no point in having them unless they are policed.Vigorously. I was careless enough to mention one particular outfit who could`nt even spell "standards" and I`m afraid to say that they are just one of many "professional" units operating in the UK who could`nt care less. Yes, there are good and bad. Making standards a voluntary option and, not policing those who sign up is aking for trouble.
