BVNA delighted to announce new member
Mrs Debbie Gray BSc (Hons) RVN Cert Ed MIfL MBVNA
New Education Development Coordinator appointed

Mrs Debbie Gray BSc (Hons) RVN Cert Ed MIfL MBVNA has been appointed by the British Veterinary Nursing Association as Education Development Coordinator and will commence her new role on the 28th August.

Mrs Gray will be working at BVNA headquarters in Harlow and her role will encompass liaising with BVNA Council on the development of new initiatives for veterinary nursing CPD, overseeing existing projects and working alongside current Education Manager, Lisa Brett.  Debbie has considerable experience in education having been employed as a BSc Veterinary Nursing Lecturer by The College of Animal Welfare and more recently a lecturer at Oaklands College in Hertfordshire.

BVNA President, Claire Fraser, commented on the new appointment: "In this time of great change for the veterinary nurse, it is imperative that the BVNA provides its members, and other members of the veterinary nursing profession, access to a wider range of high quality and affordable CPD, to ensure professional development can continue.  And so, by appointing Debbie Gray as our new Education Development Co-ordinator, she is able to bring her experience and knowledge to the BVNA, and help continue to raise the standards of CPD provision".   

BVNA members will have the opportunity to meet their new member at the forthcoming BVNA Congress in Telford held between Friday 5th and Sunday 7th October.

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.
