Social care workers, employers, service users, and carers are being urged to respond to the General Social Care Council's consultation on codes of conduct and practice.
The codes will set out the principles and expectations of the social care workforce and its employers and will set the benchmark for hearings into allegations of misconduct.
The GSCC has received around 280 written responses as well as verbal feedback from more than 1,300 people who attended consultation events at six venues across the country.
Chief executive Lynne Berry said: "There's still time before 29 March to get your responses in, so if your organisation is still considering responses, I urge you to send them to us as soon as possible," she said.
- People can respond to the consultation by visiting www.gscc-consult.co.uk or phoning 020 7397 5800.
