Free BEVA membership offer for student nurses
The association, which has more than 4,000 members, introduced free vet student membership in 2020 and is now offering the same support for equine nurses.
Vet nurse students will get free access to BEVA online journals, discounted tickets to BEVA Congress, free access to BEVA’s online learning platform and access to a range of practical veterinary apps.
Earlier this year BEVA introduced its new Schedule 3 guidelines, which have been designed to support equine veterinary professionals and businesses by describing how RVNs are permitted to work.
Past-president David Rendle said: “Historically, equine veterinary nurses have been undervalued in practice, but thankfully this is now changing.
“Veterinary nurses have invested huge amounts of time and effort to become highly skilled, and it’s great that their talents, versatility, and commitment are being supported and celebrated in these ways.”
BEVA president Roger Smith added: “It is great to see free student membership being extended to veterinary nurses, another feature of our strategy to create an ever-closer bond between the equine veterinary nursing community and equine vets.”
