Who we serve

We oversee and support the Drug Control Program and 10 boards of registration and certification in health professions. We assess the qualifications of applicants for health care professional licensure, registration, and certification. Standard rules and regulations set by the boards ensure the integrity and competence of all health care professionals in Massachusetts, and promote public health, wellness, and safety.
