NPL question

I've just started my training and I'm combining logging NPL at home with some bits squeezed in during our rare quiet patches at work. At the suggestion of another student, I keep an "analog" NPL notebook on me at all times where, when I do something loggable, I jot down the patient details, ID number, date and a quick description of what I did. It's working nicely so far as it's quick and doesn't need a computer, and I can log things properly later on without worrying I've abandoned my post! x

[quote user="bumble bee"]Unfortunately your employer is not obligated to give you time to do your NPL loggings. If its quiet yes but if its busy you have a job to do. You should spend at least 3 hrs with your CC but this involves on the job training and opening things on the NPL .[/quote]

Thank you for replying to my question helps a lot to know whats the norm in other practices

We are encouraged do log/ do college work when we are at home, with the mind set your at work to work. If it's quiet I will write down my patient ID numbers so I can log npl at home. Our practise is just too busy to have student npl/study sessions especially when it's a multi-student practice but on the very rare occasion it is quiet usually on national holidays when theyres no routine surgeries) we have slipped away to do a little npl logging.

Also I find I can never concentrate at work as the phone is always ringing or someone needs help restraining.

Thank you for your reply gives me much more of a realistic idea hearing it from another
