Practice Standards

To achieve the standard of service that you would expect, and that we wish to provide, the practice has invested in modern facilities and equipment and ensures that all staff are fully trained for the tasks that they undertake.

The CornYard Veterinary Centre meets the standards set by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) and the practice has been accredited as an RCVS Small Animal General Practice.

We comply with Core Standards, such as health and safety, hygiene and legal requirements and the provision of 24-hour cover.  We have laboratory facilities for diagnostic testing, we monitor the outcome of treatments and we are committed to the education and training of our staff.

As an accredited practice, we have passed an inspection carried out by an experienced veterinary surgeon focusing on a range of areas, including hygiene, health and safety, clinical governance and the facilities we provide, to name just few of the many criteria. We will be re inspected every four years and will be subject to spot-checks in the meantime, so we have to keep on our toes.

RCVS accreditation means that as a client you can rest assured that our practice offers a high quality of care – in those bits of the practice you can see – and those that you can’t.
