Farrier and Honorary Associate of the RCVS, Simon Curtis, talks to us about 'The Foot' stream at Congress this year, which takes place on the Saturday. The wealth of knowledge and skill which will be brought together looks to revolutionise how we tackle not only clinical conditions but how we view farriery as a way to help prevent various common causes of lameness. With vets and farriers singing from the same hymn sheet we can see significantly improved welfare and performance.

BEVApod Focus: protectMEtoo toolkit with Nichola Steel20 mai 202400:09:50

During his Presidency, Dave Rendle's objective was to tidy up the way we use anthelmintics and start to afford these essential medicines the protection they deserve. On forming the Anthelmintic Working Group, he invited Nic Steel was to be one of the first opinion practitioners to help the group create simple, practical and effective guidance on how vets at the coal face could take responsibility for their roles in the unfolding tragedy that is anthelmintic resistance. Nic talks us through the protectMEtoo toolkit and how it now provides every vet with access to the essential, evidence-based, digestible (you can read this stuff in the time it takes to drink a coffee!) information that they need to know to help their clients and save these medicines for the future.

BEVApod Life: Tackling workforce challenges in ambulatory practice with Paddy Gordon12 avr. 202400:22:32

Paddy Gordon, owner of a mixed practice and farm vet, discusses his observations and experience in vet recruitment and retention. Increasing student numbers are coming through University but equine and farm need to be given sufficient opportunity and encouragement to allow students to select these careers. Paddy will highlight how practitioners can help students with early experience as well as support students most effectively through EMS. Championing success has also been important in developing the Farm Vet of the Future competition. Paddy has 30 years experience in practice and is working with Bristol and Surrey vet schools.

Fleur, EIDS epidemiologist, provides an overview of the 2023 Q4 Equine Quarterly Disease Surveillance Report Focus Article, authored by Jose Vazquez-Boland and his team at the University of Edinburgh. Given how we’ve managed R. equi infections over the years, it's not surprising that we're now confronted with a troubling silent pandemic of multi-resistance. Eradicating it once it establishes itself in a country will prove immensely challenging, emphasising the critical importance of surveillance contributions within the UK. Discover how you can play a part in making a difference.

BEVApod Life: Building bridges with Master Farrier, Ben Benson14 mars 202400:22:09

Having supported some of the world's top equestrian teams both at home and at Championships over a number of years, Ben has worked alongside some of the most experienced vets, physiotherapists and saddle fitters, and hence has an appreciation for the importance of teamwork. This approach is no less important when dealing with a happy hacker or retired pony, and the difference between what can be achieved when working alone Vs in collaboration with each other is vast. In today's world, communicating and growing knowledge together has never been easier and should be embraced at every opportunity.

BEVApod Life: Pregnancy and parenting in equine practice with Emily Singler and Angela Jones13 févr. 202400:31:27

Whether it's handling dangerous drugs or working with unhandled yearlings, as veterinary surgeons we take calculated risks daily. After becoming pregnant with her first child, Emily identified a need for clear and concise guidance for veterinarians navigating pregnancy and parenting in clinical practice. After researching the information for herself, she decided to write a book to help new mothers make evidence based decisions about their work practices. Her book is called "Pregnancy and Postpartum Considerations for the Veterinary Team", and she now offers 'Ultimate Parenting Road Map' workshops in addition to one-to-one mentoring on the subject. Council Member, Angela Jones, joins us to discuss how planning ahead where possible, and having access to the relevant information helps ease the stresses and strains of trying to manage work-life and family-life during those early days in the process.

BEVApod Life: Vet life, army life and charity life with Nicky Housby-Skeggs25 janv. 202400:22:58

Nicky has seen the positive impact animals have on their human counterparts in extremis. From service dogs supporting soldiers in war zones, to welfare cases in society, and The Horse Trust herd helping vets and scientists progress the knowledge we have and the practical implications. Through BEVA she hopes to distill information into digestible and workable solutions for vets to provide to their patients and their owners...

BEVApod Life: Combining research with clinical practice, flexing life and answering questions with Edd Knowles18 janv. 202400:22:24

Edd has always enjoyed working on projects and has seamlessly woven this into a successful clinical career. Whilst recognising the opportunities and support that have allowed this to happen, alongside the funding, particularly from The Horse Trust and Waltham Petcare Science Institute, it is clear that his open-minded approach to careers and dedication to having a clinical impact have contributed to his success. With one leg in research and the other in general practice, he can understand the challenges vets face, and brings this perspective to the research he carries out; from Strangles to laminitis, and now Atypical Myopathy. His variety of skills and experience has enabled him to move the fulcrum of work-life balance as life has evolved, and this helps fuel his passion for exploring the frontiers of veterinary knowledge.

BEVApod Life: Hyraco, the new equine vet student association in Estonia with Justine Couret08 janv. 202400:21:06

Law graduate, Justine Couret, is currently halfway through a veterinary degree at Tartu University in Estonia. When the head of the university equine clinic, Felipe Corrêa, suggested she and three of her fellow students created an equine association for veterinary students, they took the bull by the horns and set up 'Hyraco'. Through this they hope to improve accessibility to equine careers for all students, from clinical placements to gaining experience within the various aspects of the wider equestrian industry. They believe that the equine field offers many  opportunities, which are often overlooked, and hope to work with BEVA and other equine associations to bring those to the forefront for all students.

BEVApod Life: Making equine practice sustainable for everyone with Helen Bickerton22 déc. 202300:18:30

Helen talks about her passion for the equine veterinary industry, and how despite its challenges there can be solutions to fit most, if not all. What practices need is good leaders, skilled managers, an ethos which nurtures trust and a team which embraces healthy compromise from all sides. As individuals experience life's pushes and pulls, there must be understanding that goal posts will change and challenges will arise, but that this can be used to everyone's advantage if the the industry works together.

BEVApod Life: Making equine work fit around your life with Angela Jones18 déc. 202300:19:57

On graduation, Angela completed an internship and spent time in traditional equine practice. But as life evolved, and with the arrival of kids, it became harder to balance the scales. Always one to think outside the box and ever willing to take up new opportunities, she has added more strings to her bow, and established a work-life balance in the equine field which works for her and her family.

BEVApod Life: Innovation, Internationalisation and Intellectualisation with BEVA President, Roger Smith04 déc. 202300:24:20

BEVApod Life: SPANA, societal change and scrambled eggs with Dr Youness Elouasbi & Dave Rendle09 oct. 202300:12:11

"Dr Youness has extensive experience of treating working equids as well as working on projects to educate and change attitudes to animal welfare in Morocco. I met him 10 years ago when he came and stayed with me whilst also seeing practice. I can’t remember how this came to pass but it was an absolute pleasure having him stay with us and getting to know him and understand more about his work in Morocco. It was great to be able to catch up with him at BEVA Congress and hear how his work has changed in the intervening years and also hear about the response to recent devastating earthquake." - Dave Rendle

BEVApod Life: Being patient, changing tack and making the most of what you have with Lorna Brokenshire-Dyke18 sept. 202300:18:37

Lorna went to vet school as a mature student, and did what she could to accelerate her learning and gaining of experience. After 2 internships and ambulatory work she had to change tack to locuming, in order to raise her twin boys, one of whom was disabled and underwent major surgery in the USA. Identifying a need to be flexible in her work, she has since gone on to train as an equine physiotherapist as a parallel career to a part-time ambulatory vet role. Never short of ambition and determination, Lorna recognises that all this has been possible thanks to her network of support forged throughout life. When asked what the future holds, she was happy to report she intends to hit cruise control, and enjoy what she has.

BEVApod Congress 2023: ’They are just being difficult... but do we mean the horse or the client?’ with Gemma Pearson & Tamzin Furtado11 sept. 202300:20:08

Gemma Pearson, Director of Behaviour at The Horse Trust and based at Edinburgh Vet School, and Tamzin Furtado, Researcher in Human Behaviour at Liverpool, and also funded by The Horse Trust, are both big players at this year's Congress. Behavioural change is key to not only improving our clinical success as vets, in terms of patient outcomes and owner compliance, but it can also improve the welfare of the animals we serve, create positive experiences for our clients, and facilitate enjoyment and job satisfaction for us as vets and nurses. Clinical skills are not all that is required of us. The behaviour skills, both equine and human, are what makes us able to effect what we know and make long-term changes for the better.

BEVApod Congress 2023: What’s in it for the students and new grads?’ with Jess Smith & Maisie Parsons09 août 202300:11:05

BEVA New Grad rep, Maisie Parsons, and Nottingham student, Jess Smith, talk about their experiences of BEVA Congress last year.

Meanwhile, Jess took the opportunity to present her third year project, but to a audience she wasn't expecting! However, she took full advantage of the opportunities offered at Congress and is looking forward to doing the same this year once her final year rotations release her to Birmingham!

BEVApod Life: Riding the ups and downs equine practice with Maisie Parsons24 juil. 202300:22:28

Maisie graduated a year ago and entered first opinion equine practice with all the knowledge she gained at vet school, but no prior equine industry experience and having not passed a nasogastric tube and having never 'rectalled' a colic. The learning curve was steep, but she recognised that many 'day one skills' in equine are not so routine that you must manage them alone, and that it's ok to stop and ask for help. Knowing when to seek help is a sign of development, not failure, and balancing this with growing your own self-confidence is key to enjoying any career, but never more applicable than to equine ambulatory practice. Fully expecting the ups and downs all new grads will experience, Maisie rode the rollercoaster of her first year with the help of friends, family and a supportive practice, and is now setting her sights on the next stage of her career as an equine vet.
