THE HCPC CONDUCT AND COMPETENCE COMMITTEE IN THE MATTER OF THE HEALTH AND CARE PROFESSIONS COUNCIL and ANNE WOODHOUSE
We are a group of professionals representing the 3 major fields of education, health, and social work, and have come together collaboratively, to share our knowledge and concern about the present modes of understanding and treatment of what has come to be known as 'gender dysphoria', 'gender incongruence', or 'transgender' issues
Our group consists of people who have worked in Clinical Psychology, Education, Educational Psychology, Family Therapy, Medicine, Midwifery, Nursing, Occupational Therapy, Paediatrics, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Psychiatry, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, Public Health, and Social Work. Collectively we have worked in the NHS, schools, universities, social services, and 3rd sector organisations
As reflected in the 3 intertwined features in our logo, we take the view that a collective, multi-factorial approach is what matters in effectively managing and responding to any issue affecting society and its communities. To this end we are arguing that a public health response is the only way to support children, their families, public services, professional bodies, and society as a whole
Our current convenor is:
Carolyn Brown
Retired Depute Principal Educational Psychologist
A statement on use of language
Gender ideology has generated a range of terminologies causing significant confusion and disagreement. This website acknowledges that such terms as ’trans’, ’transgender’, ’transsexual’ ‘gender dysphoria’ 'gender incongruence’ etc are interpreted differently by different groups and there is no agreement about what any of these definitions (and others) mean.
Who we are
ScotPAG is always interested to hear from health, education, or social work professionals, in relation to compelled use of language in the workplace. This might be in situations where a person feels it is impossible to object, or to express an opinion without sanctions.
