One of the UK’s largest veterinary companies has set up a new national referrals board.

IVC Evidensia claims the new body is an industry first and will provide expert support and guidance across the business as well as for specific projects.

The board will also work with specialist leads, referral leaders and the existing small animal, equine, farm and nursing boards.

Members

Its members include:

  • Paul Aldridge (VetsNow Referrals – Manchester)
  • Rory Bell (Swift Referrals)
  • Lara Brunori (VetsNow Referrals – Glasgow)
  • Padraig Egan (East Neuk Vet Referrals)
  • Jamie McClement (Abington Park Referrals)
  • Katherine Mortimer (Southern Counties Veterinary Specialists)
  • David Nutbrown-Hughes (Rowe Referrals)
  • Scott Rutherford (Frank Pet Surgeons)
  • Cathy Woodlands (Bath Veterinary Referrals)

Two members of the company’s referral national clinical leadership team, Stephen Collins and Arlene Connor, will also support the board.

Standards

IVC chief medical officer Amanda Boag said: “This group will support the ongoing development of clinical and operational standards, as well as working with our learning and development team contributing to training and promoting career progression of colleagues within the IVC Evidensia community.

“We are excited about the commitment we are making to our referral services within the UK, ensuring we build a strong community for our referrals teams and working to deliver a sustainable strategy for the future.”
