She must meet her line manager or supervisor fortnightly to discuss medication management and administration, documentation and record keeping, recognition of the deteriorating patient and appropriate escalation, and her overall clinical knowledge, communication and performance. The order must be reviewed before the end of the next six months and every six months thereafter.
