Veterinary nursing NI awards open

Acknowledge your nurses' dedication by nominating today! 

The BVNA Northern Ireland Veterinary Nursing Awards are inviting nominations for the 2014 round.

The BVNA, in association with Hill's Pet Nutrition, are inviting the profession to  help recognise a deserving individual by nominating him or her to receive an award, which will be given during the 2014 BVNA Northern Ireland Congress.

As well as nominating a veterinary nursing colleague from your practice, you can also encourage your clients to take part.

There are four nursing categories for the awards
:

·         Veterinary Nurse of the Year
·         Student Veterinary Nurse of the Year
·         Animal Nursing Assistant of the Year
·         Charity Nurse of the Year  
 
So if you are harbouring a nursing star in your practice, why not acknowledge their talents by nominating them for one of the above awards – and make their day!

A shortlist of nominees will be drawn up and the winner of each category will be announced during the gala banquet on May 23, 2014.

Nomination forms and a promotional poster for your practice are available from the BVNA website at www.bvna.org.uk or by sending a request by email to bvna@bvna.co.uk

Milk recalled over presence of veterinary medicines

Graham's Family Dairy has issued a recall for its semi-skimmed milk due to the presence of veterinary medicines in the product.

In a risk statement, the Food Standards Agency said the presence of the medicines, including penicillin, make the milk unsafe to consume and 'may be a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to antibiotics'.

Customers who bought the product are advised to return it to the store of purchase for a full refund.
