This course is perfect for newly qualified RVN’s, SVN’s, If you are returning to clinical practice after a break or Nurses moving to a busier or referral practice to refresh the basics.

Veterinary nurses play an extremely important role in the recovery process of patients and the in-patient care you give must be based on an understanding of the disease process and the ultimate aims of the treatment regimes.

It is a key duty which separates our role from that of a vet – veterinary nurses are responsible for providing the necessary care to look after patients, whether they are hospitalised or in for a routine procedure.

This course will cover how to nurse hospitalised patients with general techniques and tips used in medical nursing and relates them to some of the most common conditions we see in practice. So, you and your team can provide a high standard of care to both patients, and their owner.

The aim of this course is to assist you in further developing your in-patient medical nursing skills, with a focus on practical application of new skills and understanding which can be applied immediately back in practice.

Throughout, there will be questions for you to answer, which may require further research or encourage you to work through them with your clinical team.

All our courses include small bitesize videos with an accompanying workbook, so you don't have to write a single word (unless you want an excuse to get your stationary out 😉)
