Kindle winner

Congratulations go to veterinary nursing assistant Michelle Kirk, from Carrick Vets, Chesterfield, who has won a Kindle Fire in our ‘untangle it’ anagram competition at the British Small Animal Veterinary Association Congress (BSAVA – Birmingham, 4-7 April 2013).

Michelle (pictured) was one of almost 300 entrants to correctly unscramble a set of three anagrams, and be entered into a prize draw.

The challenge included shuffling ‘years vine return’ to give ‘veterinary nurse’ in answer to the clue ‘essential part of the team’.

“People found this question the easiest of the three to answer,” says Head of the RCVS Communications Department, Lizzie Lockett.

“This can be seen as testament to the excellent contribution VNs make to the practice team.”

The other two unscrambled phrases were ‘vaccination’ and ‘clinical governance’.

Untangling clinical governance was our focus at BSAVA Congress and, as well as the light-hearted competition, RCVS Treasurer Bradley Viner and RCVS Veterinary Investigator Pam Mosedale gave a presentation entitled ‘Clinical governance, how is it relevant to me?’.
