There is a range of promotional literature which is available to accredited practices. These include:

  • Bookmarks: Non-accreditation specific - providing information to clients about the Scheme.
  • Plaques: Wooden and acrylic plaques can be ordered through Hall Mark Signs T 020 8686 6649 
  • Logos: Practices are issued a CD with the relevant logos following each routine inspection, however if the CD is lost, a duplicate can be purchased.

A small sample is provided in your accreditation pack. Additional promotional literature can be ordered by completing and returning the Promotional Literature Order Form. This form is available to download from the 'Related documents' box, top right. 

 

Advertising

  • Accredited practices must ensure that if they use the PSS logos that they reflect the accreditations held. For example a practice group which has a main premises accredited to Veterinary Hospital Status and a branch accredited to Core Standards; the logo for Veterinary Hospital accreditation must not be used to advertise the branch premises.
  • The titles ‘Hospital’ and ‘Veterinary Hospital’ on their own, or as part of any practice signage or practice advertising, may only be used by practices accredited as a Veterinary Hospital within the Practice Standards Scheme
  • A Practice shall only use the Practice Standards logo to promote practice premises accredited under the Scheme.
  • No amendment, alteration or addition may be made to the Logo as supplied to members when used in promotional or other documents or materials generated by the Practice or on its behalf.
  • A practice may be asked to cease any promotion considered to be inconsistent with the Scheme.
