Lantra looking for case studies at BVNA Congress
Seeking feedback from veterinary nurses

Lantra will be attending BVNA Congress in Telford this weakend and is keen to hear feedback from delegates on their brand new careers factsheet, which they will be showcasing at the event. It is hoped the leaflet will inspire more young people to enter the profession.

Lantra will also be offering veterinary nurses the opportunity to take part in video and written case studies, which will examine the role of the veterinary nurse and what is involved in the profession.

The case studies will also explore issues such as what attracted the participant to the role and what sort of advice they would offer to anyone considering the same career. These case studies will then be uploaded to the Lantra website to promote veterinary nursing as an exciting career option.

All delegates are invited to visit the Lantra stand, which will be in the foyer at Congress. For more information, click here.

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
