In addition to the ‘communication tab’ on the Nursing Progress Log (NPL), there is now a ‘sampling function’ available which allows your designated Quality Assurance Supervisor (QAS) to give direct feedback on the NPL in relation to the skills they have sampled.

Your QAS will continue to send out NPL Moderation Reports and any sampling of the NPL will be detailed on this report. If you have any questions, please contact your QAS.
