"“Education is always going to be key in reducing the risk from MRSA and MRSP in veterinary practice. BSAVA has created practice guidelines and made them available to The Bella Moss Foundation, so that together we can share this best practice with all members of the clinical team as well as to pet owners. BMF has worked tirelessly alongside the veterinary profession on the issues around infection control, and this has contributed greatly to an increasing level of awareness. The British Small Animal Veterinary Association hopes that this excellent relationship with the profession continues to generate even greater knowledge and understanding.”"- Mark Johnston BVetMed MRCVS, BSAVA President 2012-2013
