Happy Veterinary Nurse and Technician Appreciation Day
Today we celebrate our Nurses at St Bernards Road and all of our wonderful colleagues in the industry!
It takes a special kind of human to do this job and it's as equally tough as it is rewarding!
Do you know what a Veterinary Nurse does behind the scenes? The answer is... almost everything!
They -
Admit, Care for, medicate and discharge our surgery patients
Monitor anaesthesia
Care for our hospital patients
Dental cleaning procedures
Assist in surgery
Minor procedures
Grooming
Perform radiographs and laboratory tests
Place catheters and take blood and urine samples
Perform admin and reception tasks
And many many others...
And let's not forget the big one - provide endless emotional support to their patients and their clients!
