  The General Medical Council (GMC) and the Faculty of Physician Associates (FPA) set standards for the education, training, and practice of PAs in the UK.
  These standards ensure that PAs receive quality education, adhere to ethical principles, and provide safe and effective care to patients.
  The Department of Health also set out a legacy ‘Competency and Curriculum Framework’.
