I feel there is an air of paranoia, which is quite frankly unfounded from many camps. In essence the registration is a good thing and will eventually if embraced adequately, will raise standards nationally. Those individuals and departments already working to a high standard will not have to change, but others will have to raise their game or loose their registration..... If they do not want to adopt best practice and professional standards, will they be missed?
Yes, it will make recruiting more difficult in the short term, but with time, mindsets change and anyone wishing to pursue a career in clinical technology will have to train and demonstrate competancy in their chosen field rather than drift into it.
