This updated guidance and supporting template is intended to assist registered providers in devising or updating their services' Statement of Purpose. It provides information on what is required to be referenced in the completed Statement of Purpose template and should be used in conjunction with the relevant regulations and standards.
The Statement of Purpose is required in order to register or renew the registration of a designated centre. The regulations under the Health Act 2007 (as amended) require providers to compile a written Statement of Purpose for designated centres and submit it as part of the registration process.
