BSAVA offers more to VNs
BSAVA expanding VN membership package

The British Small Animal Veterinary Association (BSAVA) is extending its benefit package for veterinary nurses.

Having launched VN membership in 2012, and with veterinary nursing long being central to the organisation's CPD offering and Congress programme, BSAVA has been working hard to create a package that meets the needs of VNs with the aim of helping nurses who are keen to expand their clinical knowledge and achieve all their ambitions.

The cost to become a VN member is one third of the general membership fee, and members in 2013 will also receive a free notebook at Congress, a complimentary subscription to companion magazine and Congress lecture podcasts. All apps will also be available, including the Formulary app, available on iPhone and Android.

Further benefits include discounts and certain exclusive rights, including access to member-only content online and the ability to upgrade Congress registration to include vet lectures.

Nurses attending BVNA Congress can also benefit from a special offer in which they get 14 months' membership for the price of 12.

For more information, visit the BSAVA website.
