Petplan has announced that nominations are now open for its 2022 Petplan Veterinary Awards.
The awards have been held for more than two decades to recognise the remarkable work carried out by some of the best veterinary professionals across the country.
Now in their 23rd year, the awards celebrate excellence within the veterinary profession and recognise those who inspire their clients and colleagues with their hard work and dedication.
Last year Petplan received more than 31,000 nominations across the five award categories; Practice of the Year, Vet of the Year, Vet Nurse of the Year, Practice Manager of the Year and Practice Support Staff of the Year.
The awards are judged by an independent panel made up of leading people from the veterinary industry, including presidents of the veterinary and nursing associations and previous winners of the awards.
From the thousands of nominations, judges narrow down the field of nominations to three finalists in each category with those finalists invited to attend the awards ceremony, where the winners are announced.
Judges specifically look for clear examples of a variety of factors, from exceptional levels of animal care, to building and sustaining great relationships with both colleagues and pet owners, as well as going above and beyond the call of duty.
James Barnes, head of sales and partnerships at Petplan, said: “The Petplan Veterinary Awards provide the perfect opportunity to say thank you for the exceptional work carried out by members of the veterinary profession, whatever their field and wherever they’re based.
“The Petplan Vet Awards provides a great opportunity for both clients and colleagues to recognise the dedication and talent of veterinary professionals, teams and practices, right across the UK and say a particular thank you to those who have kept up the exceptional level of care, even in the midst of a global crisis.”
