Make sure you use your cpd budget, I have used mine to do a Cpd Solutions mini online course (8 hours cpd) each year. Also you can use it to pay for BVNA membership> This year a few of us are going to use it for BSAVA nurse membership, they have quite a few cpd online videos.

Depends if you are still on your original contract or have moved over to an IVC one. You can find all IVC policies on Trace

I agree with PRP having been part of such schemes in many jobs I've had in the past. That said, it needs to be an OBJECTIVE performance measurement and not subjective. Plus it needs to be pro-rated and fairly applied so it isn't weighted against anyone who can't deliver (as opposed to won't deliver) due to their role dynamic.

Yes?

This ties in quite nicely with the other thread where we were discussing pay.

I guess you are a little bit tied in terms of confidentiality, but do you feel your targets are reasonable and what are you doing to try and achieve them?

Busy doesn't always equal making loads of money if you are doing lots of low profit work.

At the very least you know what you need to aim for either as an individual or as a team. Really the fairest possible way of paying people is based on their performance in the business.

We've been part of IVC for about 2 years now I think and I have no issues with them? I have found working for a larger company generally means it's more professionally managed than some private practices and has proper protocols in place for work related issues, progression etc. They provide a cpd allowance of £500 a year I think? We also do a lot of in house training which means I'm easily meeting my cpd requirements. We get an extra day holiday for our birthday and also extra days depending on how long we have worked there. You're entitled to 2 days off paid for cpd days. There are structured programs in place for people who want to advance their skills and lead upto head nurse/practice manager.

In terms of pay rises it is in relation to targets being met and then the clinical director/practice manager decide who should benefit from the pay pot available. The only negatives tbh are the changing lists of approved drugs.

Been IVC for four years. No perks so far...If anything things are more rigid. No pay rise for 2 years as not meeting targets!!
