RCVS Practice Standards

Animal Ark Vets in Goodmayes, Ilford are proud to be an RCVS Accredited Small Animal Practice.

How The Scheme Works

• The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) regulates the veterinary profession.
• This includes individual veterinary surgeons and the practices in which the veterinary team works.
• We are proud to be accredited under the RCVS Practice Standards Scheme, a voluntary quality assurance programme.
• This involves passing rigorous inspections carried out by an experienced accreditor appointed by the RCVS.
• Areas of accreditation include many, but as an example include areas such as hygiene, staff training, emergency cover, facilities and equipment, and clinical governance.

What it Means for You

• Provides you with peace of mind, that you can be assured of a high quality standard of care throughout the practice.

Training Practice (TP)

• Our nursing team is consistently involved in training, increasing skills and keeping up to date with best practice.
• The training not only builds the skills and qualifications of trainee nurses but also reinforces and updates the knowledge of qualified veterinary nurses as clinical assessors.
• Provides the comfort of knowing we are playing our role in helping develop nursing skills for the next generation of pets and their owners.
