"Easier to Learn and Easier to Teach" - An Independent Comparative Review By Southampton University

Since 2009 The Priory Group - one of the largest providers of Healthcare services in Europe - moved away from its old MVA and Physical Intervention Training to adopt the NFPS system of work. Recently the Priory commissioned an independent comparative survey from the University of Southampton to compare the NFPS system to the previous system used and to ensure that the NFPS system of work was acceptable: clinically, ethically and legally.

The review showed that our system was easier to learn, easier to teach, was legally accurate and legally defensible and was based on thorough assessment of risk.
