A Naturopathic Profession Regulation is legislation that will allow the Department of Health and Social Services to regulate and license the naturopathic profession in the NWT.
The primary purpose of regulating and licensing a profession is to protect the public by ensuring that anyone using a protected title, such as ‘naturopathic doctor’, has met and maintains accepted training standards.
Input will be reviewed to ensure that all the criteria in the proposed regulations are covered. It is anticipated that the regulations will be brought into force in March 2022.
Results
Feedback was received from two provincial regulatory colleges as well as the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors.
Feedback was overwhelmingly supportive and is now being used to inform minor revisions to the regulations to ensure alignment with other regulating authorities.
Completed
The Naturopathic Profession Regulations came into force on March 1, 2022.
