We're passionate about supporting and developing our colleagues, and we take a keen interest in helping our RVNs grow and thrive in their careers. We're proud to fully utilise our RVN skillset – two of our nurses have completed Schedule 3 training, one has undertaken additional imaging and ultrasound training, and two are currently working towards further certificates.
As part of the team, your responsibilities will be varied and rewarding, including monitoring anaesthesia, nurse consults, placing catheters, taking bloods, and providing in-patient care.
You'll be joining a friendly and supportive team, including 6 vets with interests in ophthalmology, dentistry, internal medicine, and surgery. Our Marlborough Road site offers laparoscopic spay facilities and is in the process of having a new digital x-ray system installed. At Petherton, we've recently added dental x-ray and a new ultrasound machine, further enhancing our diagnostic capabilities.
A recent survey carried out across CVS practices revealed that one of the top reasons our colleagues enjoy working here is the team they work with – we're proud of the welcoming, collaborative environment we've built.
