Be part of the
FUTURE
Welcome to the first step in creating history for Registered Veterinary Nurses (RVNs). Your participation in this questionnaire will pave the way for establishing the first-ever Professional Indemnity (PI) insurance tailored specifically for RVNs. This isn't just about insurance—it's about recognising, respecting, and protecting the vital role we play in veterinary care. Join us in shaping a future where our profession is grounded, supported, and respected.
We Are Not Protected
Currently, RVNs lack dedicated PI insurance. While VDS insurance provides legal representation, it falls short in offering comprehensive coverage for professional negligence claims. No other insurance covers RVNs because our title is not yet recognised as a respected profession. This leaves us vulnerable, despite our critical contributions to veterinary healthcare.
You Might Think I'm Wrong
You might think that the existing insurance is sufficient or that our title is already protected. But the reality is different.
​
The Veterinary Surgeons Act still deems us as the hands of a vet, meaning insurers do not consider us liable for our actions. However, in the last few years, we have strived for change and taken on more responsibilities yet we now face risks that are not adequately covered by current insurance options.
​
Locums, district nurses, any nurse who is not under a practice policy all face the potential for professional negligence claims that could jeopardise their careers and financial stability. Comprehensive PI insurance specifically designed for RVNs will address these gaps and provide the protection we need.
Our Movement
This initiative is more than just insurance—it's a movement to protect our title and elevate our profession. By contributing to the development of PI insurance, you're not only safeguarding your career but also supporting the entire RVN community. Together, we can stand tall and ensure that our profession is recognized and respected.

This questionnaire is based on healthcare PI, which is the foundation for creating any new PI insurance. Consequently, some questions may seem oddly worded or irrelevant. Please do your best to fill out as much as possible and don't worry if you cannot answer every question. Just provide answers to the best of your ability.
