CVS made improvements to around 70 practices in the last financial year making use of a multi-million pound fund.
It includes many sites where the improvement is focused on colleagues including rest areas, and kitchen facilities. The client’s experience is also being prioritised with refurbishments to reception and consulting rooms. Patients are also being improved with the installation of additional dental x-ray and other facilities.
The practices that received refurbishments or improvements have been prioritised after consultation with regional directors across the UK.
They include the installation of a new staff and office facility and carparking at Clarendon House, Improvements to reception and client facing areas at vets, dental x-ray and flooring works at Grove Vets and air-conditioning installation at Twyford Veterinary Clinic.
In addition, six practices are being relocated to new purpose-built premises featuring CVS’ minimum practice facility standard. This standard has been designed by the group’s vets, nurses, practice managers, and receptionists, who came together to outline what a good practice looked like.
These include Harbour Veterinary Hospital in Portsmouth and White Oak Vets which has moved from South Hetton to Peterlee.
Robin Alfonso, Chief Financial officer, said: “We will continue to prioritise investment to ensure we consistently have facilities that support great care and that we are proud of.
“We want our practices to be a more welcoming place for our clients and teams and the pets that they look after.”
CVS Group operates across companion animal, farm animal, equine, and laboratories, with over 500 veterinary practices, referral centres and sites in the UK and Australia.
