A uniquely complex risk environment

Veterinary practices carry a risk profile unlike most other businesses. Zoonotic diseases that can transfer from animals to people, controlled drugs and anaesthetic gases, ionising radiation from X-ray equipment, sharps injuries, physical risks from handling animals, and the demands of infection control all sit alongside the standard office and premises risks every employer faces.

Managing all of this properly, and demonstrating that management to RCVS practice standards assessors, requires an organised, documented approach. Featherstone Safety Hub brings the compliance records together into one place.

  • COSHH: manage drugs, anaesthetic gases, disinfectants and cleaning chemicals with a substance register.
  • Zoonosis risk: document assessments for zoonotic diseases staff may be exposed to.
  • Radiation records: store IRR 2017 documentation and dose records in the evidence library.
  • Sharps and needlestick: record sharps injuries and near misses with RIDDOR screening.
  • Training matrix: track radiation awareness, sharps, infection control and fire training with alerts.

RCVS Practice Standards and inspection readiness

The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Practice Standards Scheme expects practices to have documented health and safety management in place, including risk assessments, COSHH records, radiation protection documentation and staff training. Featherstone Safety Hub keeps all of this in one organised system, so evidence is easy to produce when a PSS assessor visits.

It complements rather than replaces your wider practice standards documentation, but it makes the underlying health and safety evidence straightforward to maintain.

Works for practices of all sizes

Whether you are a single-vet small animal practice, a large referral hospital or a mixed practice with large animal work and lone working in the field, Featherstone Safety Hub scales appropriately. Lone working risk assessments, mobile device capability and offline working support the practical realities of veterinary practice. Pricing is transparent from £29 per month with no long-term contract.
