National Veterinary Nursing Week 2010
This year, the BVNA’s National Veterinary Nursing Week will be held between Sunday the 18th and Saturday the 24th July.

The BVNA are urging veterinary nurses across the country to get involved in the week and urging them to organise or take part in events which promote the veterinary nursing profession to the general public. Last year, National Veterinary Nursing Week included a wide variety of events across the country which ranged from sky dives to sponsored bike rides.
 
This year there will be prizes awarded for the three categories, which are:
  • Best Community Event (away from the practice/college)
  • Best Open Day Event
  • Best Waiting Room Display
 
VN Week packs are available by registering online via the BVNA website or by contacting the BVNA office on 01279 408644.  Further information and ideas on holding events is also available on the official VN Week Blog.

Animal Medicines Amnesty returns this November

News Story 1
 Veterinary practices are being urged to help owners safely dispose of any unused and expired pet medicines - not just antibiotics - during November's Animal Medicines Amnesty.

Organised by the Responsible Use of Medicines Alliance Companion Animal and Equine (RUMA CA&E), the initative is supported by a range of cross-sector organisations.

Practices are encouraged to use the campaign to engage the whole practice team and raise awareness of the safe disposal of medicines with clients. Learn how your practice can get involved at rumacae.org.uk
