Achieving Public Protection Through Collaborative Self-Regulation�Reflections for a New Paradigm
The Conference Board of Canada (April 2007)

This report examines the regulatory barriers and facilitators to collaborative patient-centred practice. It does this by reviewing the provincial/territorial and national legislation and regulation related to health professionals in Canada and identifying international regulatory trends. The content builds on information gathered during a twoday workshop that brought together regulators from different jurisdictions and professions with the objectives of identifying key issues in regulation and inviting their views on the future of health professional regulation in this country.
