Every year during May, the veterinary profession celebrates Veterinary Nursing Awareness Month (VNAM), proudly spearheaded by the British Veterinary Nursing Association (BVNA). In 2024, BVNA will celebrate 20 years since the campaign began.
The purpose of VNAM is to champion the veterinary nursing profession to the public and pet owners. The vital role of veterinary nurses in upholding animal welfare is highlighted – both in and out of clinical practice.
This year, the campaign theme is ‘Progression’ – highlighting the profession’s diverse range of skills, abilities and career pathways. BVNA will also be continuing to drive awareness amongst the public about why protection of the ‘veterinary nurse’ title is so crucial.
