Four finalists from IVC Evidensia in the 21st Pet Plan Veterinary Awards!
The finalists have been announced for the 21st Pet Plan Awards and IVC Evidensia are very proud that four of the finalists are part of the group.

The finalists have fought off some very stiff competition to get this far with over 7,500 nominations across the categories, more than double the number received last year. Often referred to as the veterinary ‘Oscars’, the event recognises those who inspire their clients and colleagues with their hard work and dedication, celebrating excellence within the veterinary profession.
IVC Evidensia Ethical Statement
Meet the members of the IVC Evidensia Group Veterinary Medical Board, who are proud to introduce our updated Ethical Statement.

This Ethical Statement outlines the values and responsibilities of the IVC Evidensia Group. It considers our patients, their owners, our staff and colleagues, as well as public health and global sustainability.

These guidelines direct our everyday work as well as policy decision processes and should apply to all activities within the company, extending beyond clinical practice. This is not a complete list, rather a template to guide our ideals.
For IVC Evidensia, to be a responsible company means to behave ethically in all aspects of our business and to care for the environment.

We must set good examples in the way we act towards each other as employees and the way we treat our business partners, always respecting laws and regulations in the countries we do business.

This Ethical Statement has been adopted by the Board and responsibility for compliance rests with all of us. This is how we earn the trust that forms the basis for our business.
