NMC imposes 18-month interim practice conditions on midwife Milan Arian

Findings

This was a New Interim Order Hearing before the NMC's Investigating Committee, held virtually on 24 July 2026. Mrs Arian was not present and was unrepresented. The panel decided to make an interim conditions of practice order for a period of 18 months, determining the conditions to be proportionate and appropriate. The conditions require her to limit her practice as a registered midwife to one substantive employer other than agency or bank work; not to be the sole midwife on duty or the midwife in charge of any shift; to be indirectly supervised by another registered midwife whenever working; not to administer medication unless directly supervised until signed off as competent; to create and work to a personal development plan covering medicines management, maternal observations and recognition of maternal deterioration, foetal monitoring including CTG interpretation, neonatal observations and recognition of neonatal deterioration, escalation of concerns, documentation and record keeping, prioritisation, time management, and communication and clinical decision making; to hold fortnightly meetings with her line manager or supervisor; and to keep the NMC informed of her employment, study and any clinical incident, investigation or disciplinary proceedings. The order must be reviewed before the end of the next six months and every six months thereafter. The determination records that the NMC Case Examiners are yet to decide whether there is a case to answer in relation to the allegations made against Mrs Arian.
