Code of Practice
The ASPS Code of Practice provides specific guidance on the professional ethics and behaviour required of members of our society. It reflects the professional standards expected of Specialist Plastic Surgeons by ASPS and the communities we serve.
Embedded in the Code are the values of ASPS which are:
- Surgical excellence and ethical practice
- Honesty, integrity and respect
- Compassion
- Accountability
- Scholarship and collegiality
These values guide us in our interactions with patients, fellow surgeons, trainees, nursing and allied health care staff, and other stakeholders in the health sector.
