Vet Times Podcast

Ahead of BCVA Congress, we catch up with Fiona Lovatt to discuss progress with the Farm Vet Champions project, which launched last year. Spearheaded by RCVS Knowledge, the project is a collaboration between a number of veterinary organisations – including the BCVA – to empower the livestock profession to establish good antimicrobial stewardship. More than 700 vets have signed up so far – and in May 2022 the ability to set SMART goals was launched, allowing champions to set individual or team targets towards more responsible antibiotic use and healthier stock on farms. Fiona is clinical lead of Farm Vet Champions, and in this episode she discusses the SMART goals platform, how the project is leading the way for the veterinary profession, and future developments with the scheme. __________________
