A. provide a copy of these records to the HCPC on a fortnightly basis, the first report to be provided a fortnight after you have identified and started to work with your workplace supervisor, or confirm that there have been no such cases during that period; and

B. make those records available for inspection at all reasonable times by any person authorised to act on behalf of the HCPC.

You must maintain a reflective practice profile detailing every occasion on which you have treated a patient who presented with the potential of vascular or neurological compromise, and you must provide a copy of that profile to the HCPC seven days prior to the next review hearing or confirm that there have been no such occasions in that period.

8. You must promptly inform the HCPC if you take up any other employment.
