The list will no longer exist by the end of next year. You will need to be an RVN or lay person.

If you are removed from the Register, don't you just become a Qualified VN and can't do schedule 3?

Next time, cheat.

[quote user="Stacy B"]Still not quite sure the difference between listed and registered vet nurses where schedule three is concerned?![/quote]

To the best of my knowledge, there is no difference whatsoever, it is just that RVNs are bound by a Code of Conduct / have to do CPD, and LVNs are not / do not. An RVN can be struck off, where an LVN cannot (although for the moment at least, being struck off has little real impact as one can continue to be an LVN after being struck off as an RVN, but I'm sure that will change).

Correct me if I'm wrong, anyone.

I think its important to remember in the ethics exam there are no 'right' answers, which is a pain! You just need to use the available resources to argue each side of the case. For revision we did a task where we had various scenarios, then brainstormed all relevant laws etc - it really helps you see the bigger picture. Hope that helps?
