The IVC Evidensia Positive Pawprint Sustainability Report 2023 covers the progress we have made in the past year to implement our Positive Pawprint Strategy.
Across IVC Evidensia we care every day - for animals, our clients, our colleagues, and for a better environment.
As a large international network, we embrace our responsibility to use our expertise and resources to drive real and lasting change. It’s all in support of our vision for IVC Evidensiato be not only the best veterinary group in the world, but to be the best veterinary group for the world as well.
Transforming how we do things to embed sustainability is an exciting challenge. Our Positive Pawprint strategy helps us do this, based on three pillars - People, Planet and Patients - and underpinned by KPIs and targets to measure our progress. Our Positive Pawprint Report provides a detailed update on progress across our international network.

Referral network
Right care, right time, right team
The IVC Evidensia referral network ensures that local teams are empowered to provide exceptional veterinary care by offering all of our patients the right care at the right time, delivered by the right team.
We bring people together to make animal care better. We ensure local teams are empowered to reach their potential through continual investment in our people, our premises and the equipment needed to build the world’s best veterinary group.
A joint veterinary perspective – IVC Evidensia’s veterinary medical board meets with the heads of clinical boards and medical directors from other countries to discuss and agree on quality systems, ethical and clinical policies.
Clinical work requires excellent hygiene standards
To ensure a consistently high level across our group, we are following IVC Evidensia hygiene guidelines which improve the hygiene and infection prevention work in everyday practice.
Feeding your pet a wholesome, high-quality diet is an essential aspect of preventative healthcare and increases their chance of living a longer, healthier life.
