Empowering nurses to progress their careers
Racheal Marshall
Racheal is one of six candidates standing in the 2016 VN Council elections.

VN election candidate hopes to play a part in gaining recognition for the profession
 
"There are currently too many nurses leaving our profession due to the perceived lack of career progression opportunities," said Rachael Marshall, a candidate in the upcoming VN Council elections.

But in fact, she believes there are numerous different routes for nurses to break into. If elected, Rachael hopes to join efforts to empower nurses, helping them to feel valued and reach their full potential by progressing their careers.

Rabbit Awareness Week set to return this summer

News Story 1
 Rabbit Awareness Week (RAW) is returning this summer, running from 24-28 June 2024. The theme for this year will be 'Healthy Diet, Happy Bunnies'.

The focus on rabbits' diet comes after the most recent PDSA Animal Wellbeing (PAW) Report report revealed that 42 per cent of veterinary professionals identified inappropriate diet as one of the five most important rabbit welfare issues that need to be address.

The campaign will include veterinary blogs, videos, and digital waiting room resources. Practices can sign up to receive updates about RAW.

CVS Group hit by cyber attack

CVS Group, which owns more than 450 veterinary practices in the UK, has been hit by a cyber attack.

In a statement, the group said the incident involved unauthorised external access to a limited number of its IT systems. As soon as the attack was discovered, the group took its IT systems temporarily offline, causing 'considerable operational disruption'.

It has warned that the security steps taken and ongoing plans to move its operational systems and IT infrastructure to the Cloud are likely to have an ongoing impact over a number of weeks.

Due to the risk that personal information was accessed, CVS has informed the Information Commissioner's Office. The company is working with third party consultants to investigate the incident.
