Your Instructor(s)

Senior Small Animal Anaesthesia Instructor Claire Carr DipAVN (Small Animal) DipHE CVN RVN NCert (Anaesth)

My name is Claire, and I'm the Head Veterinary Nurse at Leeds Birstall Vets4Pets, a 24/7 emergency hospital in West Yorkshire. I started in veterinary practice in 2004 and have worked in various practices. I completed my student nurse training at Myerscough College in 2007 and loved nursing in general practice. Anaesthesia was a subject that I enjoyed, but I was aware that there was so much more to learn that I didn't know, so in 2014, I undertook and completed the Improve International Nurses Certificate in Anaesthesia. This gave me a greater understanding of anaesthetic protocols and monitoring, and I developed a thirst for knowledge that I hadn't felt since undertaking my initial nurse training. In 2019, I took the educational leap and undertook the RCVS Advanced Nursing Diploma at Myerscough College, which I completed in February 2022. This gave me an incredible wealth of knowledge utilised every day of my work and encouraged me to begin my BSc (Hons) in Clinical Veterinary Nursing with Myerscough College. When I'm not studying or working, I enjoy spending my free time walking my two English Springer spaniels with my husband John and socialising with friends by going to music events and to the theatre.
