Full Scope Podiatry Model
The College supports the shift to the Full Scope Podiatry Model (FSPM) to help modernize and streamline registration pathways for healthcare professionals who practice foot care in Ontario. It is anticipated that the adoption of the FSPM will attract more podiatrists to the province both through pathways of increased enrolment in podiatry program(s) in the province and through registration applications from podiatrists trained out-of-province, including international applicants. The shift will include the following main changes:
- College Name Change
- Registrant Name Change
- Expanded Scopes of Practice for Registrants
- Podiatry Program in Ontario
- Removal of Cap on Registering Podiatrists
