“…In their paper, Oxtoby and colleagues concluded that a national veterinary signiicant event reporting system should be a simple online tool, accessible to all, with readily available feedback and support and hosted by an organisation independent from the regulator (ie, not the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons). 29 The results of this study have been used to inform the development of the Veterinary Defence Society's VetSafe tool, 31 which is designed to fulil the requirements outlined above. This is a bespoke and conidential online system that allows veterinary practitioners and veterinary nurses to record signiicant events in their practices.…”
