On Sunday the 9th of June we hosted the inaugural Ballarat Veterinary Nurse Conference.
We are so proud with how the day went.
A big thank you to @ballaratgolfclub for the amazing venue.
Thank you to all our speakers and sponsors, without you the day wouldn’t have been able to happen.
And a massive thank you to all the delegates, we loved seeing you all and hope to see you again next year.
Thank you Brad for the amazing video you have made of the day for us.

The Ballarat veterinary nursing conference is underway!
Are your pets up to date with their parasite control?
⚕️Adequate flea, tick, mite, intestinal and heart worm control for your pets is essential all year round for the protection of your whole family (two legged and four!)
😱We often think of fleas being more active in the warmer months of the year. However, when you consider how warm we keep our homes when it starts to get cold….our indoor pets need good parasite control all year round!
Chat to a member of your preferred clinic for the very best parasite control advice available; you can find the contact number below👇

What do Vet Nurses do?
Phlebotomy!
Phlebotomy is when someone uses a needle to take blood from the vein.
In the Veterinary world we try to use the jugular vein which is located in the neck.
All our nurses are trained to collect blood from patients.
This video shows our nurse Georgia restraining the cat, while nurse Natalie is collecting the blood from the jugular vein. #VNTAW2023 #vetnurselife #behindthescenesvet #bloodcollection
It’s thirsty work being a cat! (Sound on)
Making sure that your cat gets enough to drink is super important for their health and well-being.
It can also help maintain urinary tract health and prevent problems with urinary tract infections and blockages.
However, we know that in winter some cats don’t drink enough.
💦Be sure to have multiple water bowls available and even consider adding extra water to their food. Some cats love to drink out of the tap and others love a water fountain.
How does your cat like their water served? 🐈
