Practice Manager of the Year deadline near
2011's winner Denise Coston
The final deadline for nominating candidates for the Practice Manager of the Year Awards is drawing closer and those who wish to see a practice manager recognised should submit their nomination as soon as possible. The final deadline is February 12th 2012.
This year's Award will be the seventh since the Award was founded by Petplan and the Veterinary Business Journal, and will form a distinguished component of Petplan's general Veterinary Awards ceremony. The winner will be chosen by a panel of industry judges who will base their decision on the applications submitted at the candidates' nomination. The standard of entrants is invariably high, and the winner will be announced alongside similarly recognised veterinary surgeons, nurses, support staff, and practices as a whole. The ceremony will take place in Birmingham on April 12th 2012.
The ceremony is being held in association with the Veterinary Practice Managers Association (VPMA) and the Society of Practising Veterinary Surgeons (SPVS). The winner will receive a plaque to commemorate the award and a year's membership of the VPMA.
2011 winner Denise Coston, of Castle Veterinary Surgeons in County Durham, said of the award: "It is so important in recognising and championing the efforts of practice managers. I'm sure there will be many people out there who still don't know what we do or how we could benefit their business and this award highlights our achievements."
Application forms are also available on request from Jackie Morrison by email on jackiemorrison@vbd.uk.com, or by post at The Veterinary Business Journal, Olympus House, Werrington Centre, Peterborough PE4 6NA.
BSAVA is to partner with BVA Live (11-12 June 2026) to champion clinical research.
