Medical Radiographers
Medical Radiographers are greatly in demand in the UK, so much so that three roles are officially recognised on the UK Border Agency’s Shortage Occupation List. If you’re a Non EEA Medical Radiographer our Tier 2 Licensed Healthcare Partners may be prepared to sponsor you on a Tier 2 Visa (Work Permit)!
Currently the following Medical Radiology roles are in shortage (as of 14th December 2009):
- HPC Registered Diagnostic Radiographer
- HPC Registered Therapeutic Radiographer
- Sonographer

The Health Professionals Council (HPC)
The Health Professionals Council is an industry body set up to regulate certain areas of the Health sector, including Medical Radiography.
HPC Registration is a ‘seal of approval’ which is intended to reassure members of the public that health professionals:
- Meet certain training standards
- Maintain satisfactory professional skills
- Behave in an appropriate manner
In order to gain an HPC Registration you will need to undergo a professional assessment. For more information please contact Commonwealth Contractors or see www.hpc-uk.org.
