Local plans

A local plan is an operational plan written for a specific group of non-medical registered healthcare professionals working in a particular context.
It will identify the scope of practice or a specific range of investigations which it is appropriate for the non-medical requestor to request.
Each specialist area must have a local plan.
Each non-medical requestor must work in accordance with their local plan.

Clinical supervisor: a senior clinician or senior specialist practitioner within the area of work identified in the local plan

Requestor: a registered healthcare professional who is entitled, in accordance with the employer's procedures, to refer individuals for medical exposures.
