Management shorts from vetcommunity.com
Vet Community
Each Management short comes in the form of a downloadable PDF.
Providing information about the everyday management of veterinary practice

It's great to read full length informative articles but sometimes we just need quick reference material often just as a reminder of what we need to be doing.

Management shorts have been written for just this purpose. They provide the manager with quick basic information about the everyday management of a veterinary practice, covering all the different areas the manager may need to to deal with on a regular basis.

Each Management short comes in the form of a downloadable PDF and can be found in the Practice Management Zone of Vet Community where a new 'short' will be added each week.

As well as describing regulatory developments, the advice highlights the importance of animal ID, registration and traceability in disease control and other compliance arrangements.

The guidance can be found here. More detail is expected as negotiations progress.

Lords Committee opens Pet Parasite Medication inquiry

The House of Lords Environment and Climate Change Committee will launch its inquiry into Pet Parasite Medication (PPM) on Wednesday (3 June).

Focusing on treatments containing fipronil and imidacloprid, the inquiry will seek to understand distribution pathways and the impacts of PPM use and non-use on biodiversity and human health. It will also cover current regulation, monitoring, and the potential implications for pets and their owners.

The committee will hear evidence from environmental non-governmental organisations and research institutes. The public can follow the proceedings live on Parliament TV or in person in the Palace of Westminster.
