BVNA Congress – Early Bird Tickets
BVNA Congress will be held between the 8th and 10th October this year and delegates can register before July 31st to benefit from the early bird rates on offer.

The British Veterinary Nursing Association (BVNA) Annual Congress is pleased to announce, new for 2010, a four tiered lecture programme running on all three days of the event. The additional lecture stream will provide delegates with more choice and great value for money, with leading speakers offering high quality CPD.  Delegates will also be able to visit the commercial exhibition earlier on the Friday, as the opening time has been brought forward, allowing delegates more time to browse around the exhibition hall and a chance to enter some fantastic competitions.

The Congress registration document is now available and has price options to suit everyone’s pocket.  There are a number of group discounts available plus an early bird rate.  Visit the BVNA website or contact the BVNA office team on 01279 408644 for more information.

BSAVA publishes Guide to Nutrition in Small Animal Practice

The BSAVA has added a small animal nutrition advice booklet to its series of BSAVA guides.

The BSAVA Guide to Nutrition in Small Animal Practice offers a resource for veterinary professionals to provide appropriate nutrition for animals. As well as maintaining the wellbeing of healthy pets, the guide explores how nutritional requirements change in times of illness and disease.

The guide is divided into five sections, which explore the importance of nutritional assessment; diet types; feeding at different life stages; feeding for specific situations; and feeding for specific diseases. Online resources are also in the BSAVA Library including client handouts and videos.

It is designed to be suitable for referencing, in-depth case planning and team training sessions.

The BSAVA Guide to Nutrition in Small Animal Practice can be purchased online from the BSAVA store.
