Accredited Practices

Around half of the UK’s practice premises are accredited under our voluntary Practice Standards Scheme.

Our assessors visit practices in the Scheme every four years to ensure that their facilities meet the standards associated with their category of accreditation. 

In addition to the base accreditations, practices can now apply to be assessed for optional awards in specific areas. This is designed to demonstrate where practices excel in the services they provide and to enable pet owners to opt for the highest standard of care by the 'Good' and 'Outstanding' service rating provided.
