Podiatry in Belgium: sterilization and professional standards

CSS/HGR · FPS Public Health · INAMI/RIZIV

Podiatry is a recognized paramedical profession under the Royal Decree of 7 March 2016. Podiatrists must comply with CSS/HGR 9682 recommendations for sterilization of reusable medical devices. As an accredited paramedical profession, compliance with hygiene standards is expected for maintaining community accreditation and INAMI convention status. Instruments used for invasive foot care must be sterilized in an autoclave.
