New veterinary resource launches
Latest journal benefits the whole practice team

The launch of a new journal - Veterinary Practice Today - this Autumn will provide a resource for the whole practice team, including vets, vet nurses and practice managers.

Veterinary Practice Today will be brought to the profession each quarter by Vision Media, publishers of management journal Veterinary Management for Today (VMFT) for the past decade, as well as MRCVSonline and vnonline.

After 10 years of publishing VMFT, Vision Media are pleased to be relaunching and expanding the publication to benefit the whole practice team.

Comprising 60 pages, Veterinary Practice Today will continue to provide valuable, high quality articles for veterinary practice managers, but also includes clinical and veterinary nursing sections.

The two new sections will provide clinical "how to" guides and topical articles covering issues relevant to veterinary surgeons and nurses in practice.

After launching in Autumn this year, an initial 7,500 distribution will target UK practice managers, veterinary surgeons and nurses, with the aim of providing an insightful, relevant and valuable publication for the whole team.

Soon, veterinary surgeons, veterinary nurses and practice managers will be able to register for their free copy through MRCVSonline and vnonline.

Any writers interested in contributing can contact Vision Media with their ideas.

New form for online veterinary medicines retailers

The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) has produced a new online form for retailers wishing to sell veterinary medicines on the internet.

The form replace the previous Word version and is part of the VMD's ongoing commitment to digitise its processes. Anyone retailing prescription medicines online, including POM-V, POM-VPS and NFA-VPS categories, is lawfully required to register with the VMD before trading.

The change only applies to new applicants. Retailers already listed on the VMD's Register of Online Retailers or registered under the Accredited Internet Retailer Scheme (AIRS) do not need to do anything.
