About us
Who we are
The Allied Health Professionals Council is the statutory regulator for allied health professionals in Mauritius. Our role is to protect the public by making sure everyone on our register is properly qualified and meets the standards we set for education, conduct, and practice.
- Set the standards for education, conduct and practice
- Register professionals who meet those standards
- Publish a public register anyone can check
- Act on concerns to keep the public safe
How we are run?
We are governed by the Allied Health Professionals Council Act 2017. This lays out our responsibilities and it gives us our legal authority to carry out these. At present, the 18 professions that we regulate have been divided into six clusters.
The Council consists of:
- One allied health professional from each cluster
- A representative of the Ministry of Health
- A representative of the Prime Minister’s office
- A representative of the Ministry responsible for the subject of finance
- A representative of the Ministry responsible for the subject of education
- Two persons who are not allied health professionals
