<strong>National</strong> <strong>Standard</strong> <strong>Operating</strong> <strong>Procedures</strong> (NSOP’s)<br />

Introduction<br />

After a comprehensive review, in September 2020 the 'Patrol Operations Manual (POM)' was replaced<br />

by <strong>National</strong> <strong>Standard</strong> <strong>Operating</strong> <strong>Procedures</strong> (NSOPs) and Club/Service <strong>Operating</strong> <strong>Procedures</strong> (CSOPs).<br />

NSOPs, set out national minimum standards & CSOPs provide important club specific information, and<br />

procedures that are unique to the club or patrol location. Combined they assist lifesaving services in<br />

the management and safe delivery of their operations as a capable rescue organisation.<br />

Attention to the NSOPs and CSOPs should ensure that all volunteer and/or paid roles are informed of<br />

all operational expectations.<br />

SLSNZ Lifesaving Policies together with NSOPs, CSOPs & SLSNZ Training Manuals are the resources<br />

which give clubs & services structure and guidance to conduct training and patrols effectively.<br />
