May is Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month and we wanted to celebrate the role of the Veterinary Nurse.
We are lucky to have Rebecca as our Veterinary Nurse. We thought we would tell you some of her jobs: she offers nurse consults to include second vaccinations, medication applications and injections, flea and worm consults, adolescent health checks, nail trims, dematts, senior clinics, the list goes on. She also answers your calls, orders medications, plans the diaries, talks with drug reps, practice manages, checks the fridge temperatures daily, organises our waste and liaises with our cremation partners, sends sympathy cards, and her biggest job is managing Mark!
Rebecca qualified in 2005 after doing her English degree, she has qualifications in Canine Behaviour and runs her own business ( www.peacehheallove.com ) offering Animal Reiki and Canine Bowen Technique to animals and Reiki and Bowen to people. She is a Reiki Master Teacher and has many interests as well as animals such as yoga, dancing, drumming and poetry and was Stamford's Poet Laureate a few years ago.
Rebecca has volunteered abroad using her nursing skills to neuter, nurse, educate, rehome and even run charities in Bardados, Rarotonga, The Cook Isands and Grenada
As well as a Mummy to 2 little ones she provides nursing support to us and we celebrate the varied and important roles the Veterinary Nurse provides to all Vets and Practices.
