What the rules say

Resolve this before anything else: whether your specific mobile earwax removal practice needs CQC registration genuinely depends on your circumstances, and CQC itself invites a direct enquiry where it's unclear. Published guidance ties regulation to the involvement of a listed healthcare professional in agreeing and delivering treatment -- independent sources read this differently for a non-HCPC-registered practitioner doing mechanical removal only, so do not rely on a convenient reading either way -- contact CQC directly. No qualification is a legal requirement for microsuction or ear irrigation, but the training and insurance market in practice expects a recognised course. DBS eligibility for this role is genuinely unclear from current guidance; use the official DBS eligibility tool rather than assuming. Public liability and professional indemnity insurance aren't a legal mandate for a sole trader, but are generally treated as essential given the clinical nature of the work.
