Filed under:
The new, non-statutory Register for veterinary nurses opened on 1st September. 3329 VNs were automatically included (having been listed with the RCVS since 2003). The remainder joined the list voluntarily. RVNs are obliged to undertake 45 hours of CPD over 3 years, and to follow the Guide to Professional Conduct for Veterinary Nurses. To help promote the new title, the RCVS has sent a poster to all newly registered RVNs to display in their practices. More promotional materials are in the pipeline.
