A message to our learning community After much consideration, we’ve made the decision to close the Improve Veterinary Practice platform on 13 January 2026. Improve Veterinary Practice was built to support vets and nurses at every stage of their career, and while this chapter is ending, a new one is starting at Improve Veterinary Education. We couldn’t be more grateful for the community you’ve helped us build and hope to see you on this exciting next step. Find out more

identi seeks pet protection nursing champion

identi are searching for nominations for their Pet Protection Nurse Champion to celebrate Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month

identi, the pet protection expert, is celebrating Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month (VNAM) in May by launching a search for the country’s vet nurse pet protection champion.

The identi Pet Protection Nurse Champion will be an individual who has gone above and beyond the call of duty in the pet protection journey, from microchipping through to reunification.

Nominations can include vet nurses who drive chipping and pet protection in their practice or those who have gone that extra mile in reuniting a pet with its owner.

Tammie O’Leary, commercial lead at identi, comments: “There’s no doubt about it, vet nurses have an extensive and versatile pet protection skill set which ranges from microchipping animals to liaising with owners when their pet goes missing, which can be a distressing time for all. 

“Our identi Pet Protection Nurse Champion award identifies the dedication and effort vet nurses invest in the pet protection, journey from microchipping through to reunification.”

Nominations can be made online and the vet nurse awarded identi Pet Protection Nurse Champion will win a £100 Amazon gift card. 

The nomination closing date is Wednesday 31 May.
