Fantastic way to start the week, feedback from Helen Russell RVN who has just completed the #ForensicProcess e-course: ‘I just want to say a huge thank you for this course. I have thoroughly enjoyed learning about the cases and have found the processes along the way fascinating’.
Hello vets’! We still need your help to explore vet’s experiences of non-accidental injuries and animal abuse in companion animals. Could you please complete the survey and share the link? @ScottishSPCA@DogsTrust @TheLinksGroup @LinkCoalitionTO @ASPCA https://t.co/vd5PwYpS0B
Vets and friends of vets - we we need your help! Fill in and share our vital survey exploring the importance of vets' experiences of non-accidental injury and #animalabuse in companion animals. @ScottishSPCA @TheLinksGroup @DogsTrust@ChildAnimals @ https://t.co/vd5PwYpS0B
Our #AnimalForensic Lead @CSL_CSI is looking forward to meeting @RSPCA_official today. She's armed with a gift of dog and cat food generously donated by her cat Floki (who's not ready to share her toys just yet, they’re being kept extremely safe!)
Lots in the media recently about #thelink between animal and human abuse. We work with #Vets to re-assure them it's not their responsibility to prove a #NonAccidentalInjury case but recognise the vital role they play as they see the results of violence in their animal patients
We fully support this move towards higher sentencing for animal abusers. It will have an impact on #Vets and #VetNurses who will need training in forensic processes to help convict abusers. https://t.co/h33L0865kI . #vetforeniscs#animalwelfare#thelink#forensicprocess
Looking forward to @CharterForSci Autumn Conference ‘“What doesn't kill you makes you stronger". Our #AnimalForensic Lead @CSL_CSI will be speaking about breaking the #Animal & #Domestic#Abuse#TheLink earlier through improved agency cross-reporting to end the cycle of violence
Recent case highlights need for #Vets to recognise signs of animal abuse and #Link between animal and domestic abuse. The #ForensicProcess CPD trains vets and nurses how to recognise non-accidental injury cases and signposts vital support systems available https://t.co/6PrxKECfrW
It's time the UK government fulfilled its promise to increase the maximum penalty for animal cruelty from 6 months' imprisonment to 5 years' imprisonment. #DEFRA#animalcruelty#animalwelfare

Cannot thank the #VetNurse curriculum team @WrittleOfficial enough for their welcome and feedback from our #NonAccidentalInjury#VetForensics#CPD event yesterday. Always good to hear the response was ‘overwhelmingly positive’ and more importantly to meet the resident #animals!
#ForensicProcess CPD course for #Vets & #VetNurses is an intro to veterinary forensics. Every Vet Practice should have a ‘forensic champion’ who understands the fundamentals of documenting, recording and preserving information and forensic samples. Info: https://t.co/6PrxKECfrW
