BSAVA VN Merit Awards filling fast
The new VN Merit Award programmes, created by the British Small Animal Veterinary Association (BSAVA) to provide focussed CPD for vet nurses, are proving popular.
The inaugural Rehabilitation and Physiotherapy VN Merit Award is already fully subscribed while places on other programmes, such as anaesthesia and analgesia, are also being snapped up.
VNs taking part in these programmes will have the chance to strengthen their theoretical knowledge and to learn important practical skills in an area of particular interest to them.
Academic Director Dr Frances Barr commented: “Veterinary nurses have an increasing desire to stretch their skills and expand their contribution to the clinical team, and the new awards will provide that opportunity. They deserve the support of the whole profession.”
The first two Merit Awards will run in autumn 2012. For more information, click here.
The RCVS has announced a new version of its 1CPD mobile app, with enhanced features for veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses to record their continuing professional development.
