Dedicated veterinary nurse passionate about animal care and welfare.
What I'm looking for
I am a highly ambitious professional with a passion for all animals. A dedicated worker with excellent communication, listening, time management, and computer skills, I take absolute pride in everything I do, consistently fulfilling goals above and beyond expectations.
Currently, I am a locum veterinary nurse with Vetsnow, where I have gained valuable skills and confidence in handling patient care in emergency situations. My previous experience at Northwest Referrals allowed me to assist in complex surgeries, enhancing my practical knowledge and expertise in veterinary nursing.
Having started my career at Rufford Veterinary Group as a volunteer, I progressed to a fully qualified Registered Veterinary Nurse. My role involves assisting in surgeries, managing emergency admissions, and conducting nurse clinics. I am eager to continue my professional journey in a supportive environment that values animal welfare.
