The Nova Scotia Regulator of Physiotherapy
Welcome to the new website of The Nova Scotia Regulator of Physiotherapy (NSRPT). Please check back regularly to see what we have added for your information and convenience. The Nova Scotia Regulator of Physiotherapy is a not-for-profit Regulatory Board dedicated to regulation of physiotherapists in Nova Scotia. You must be registered and licensed with NSRPT before practicing physiotherapy in Nova Scotia. Our role is to ensure the public receives safe, competent, and ethical physiotherapy services. The NSRPT sets and enforces the educational and practice standards in the province to ensure competency.
The Board and Committee members of NSRPT are volunteers dedicated to carrying out the mandate of public protection in a fair manner by following these basic principles:
1. The Regulator will respond to issues of concern to the public regarding physiotherapy.
2. The Regulator will ensure that registration and discipline processes are publicized, fair and easily understood.
