11 year old Vizsla Buddy had a dental with Vet Jo & RVN Leanne yesterday & despite needing a large, 3 rooted molar 🦷 taking out he was still ready for his lunch very quickly after recovering from his anaesthetic - we wish him a speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹

Every day throws up something different for our nursing team & this morning RVN Jolene is feeding a fledgling brought in my a member of the public! Hopefully we can get it out to a rescue centre for rehabilitation & release soon

17/05/2024

It’s Day 17 of Veterinary Nursing Awareness Month & here we’ve captured RVN Jolene processing a Haematology sample & measuring a patients ‘PCV’ or packed cell volume - this is a measurement of the proportion of blood that is made up of cells. The value is expressed as a percentage or fraction of cells in blood & helps us detect or monitor anaemia 🩸

RVN Jo looked after handsome 5 month old Maine C**n kitten ‘Simon’ from start to finish of his stay with us today for neutering. 😻
Jo initially admitted him & ensured his owners consented to, & fully understood, the procedure, the associated costs, & the potential risks. She weighed him & calculated his premedication drugs & administered these & then, after Vet Michaela induced his general anaesthetic, Jo was responsible for monitoring & adjusting his anaesthetic whilst Michaela carried out his surgery. Post-op Jo monitored his recovery & then she discharged him to his owners, informing them of the home care he now needs to ensure he remains comfortable & recovers quickly. ❤️‍🩹
Simon, & all our patients, are fortunate to be in caring & experienced hands with our excellent nursing team 🤩

RVN Leanne is taking blood pressure measurements from the tail of a chilled out 18 year old ‘Macavity’ as part of screening him for old age diseases that may be contributing to his weight loss, yowling & appetite changes.
It is completely painless & usually well tolerated 😻
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is more common in older cats, affecting 20% of those over 9 years of age & causes damage to the eyes, kidneys, heart & brain. If undetected one of the first presenting signs can be sudden blindness.
We recommend annual blood pressure checks from 9 years onwards or more frequently for cats with kidney or thyroid disease.

Wonderful 10 year old Beagle ‘Woodie’ is today’s star of the day 🌟 when he came in for a mass removal surgery with Vet Jo
Here he is having his pre-anaesthetic bloods taken by RVN Leanne & SVN Alice. 😍🩸 💉
Pre-anaesthetic blood screens are advised in all patients 8 years & older & are run by our nursing team on our in-house laboratory equipment. The results give us information about our older patients red blood cell count, kidney & liver function & glucose levels & if there are abnormalities this can lead to adverse effects on the safety of anaesthetics & we may need to make adjustments to the medications, dosages or procedures for that patient

18 month old Golden Retriever ‘Anwen’ looked super proud of her fetching bandage at Park Rd yesterday! 😍

17/04/2024

😍 Lovely 6 year old Rottweiler’Amber’ visited us last week for Vet Steph to perform a dental scale & polish under anaesthetic. 🦷
Anaesthetized dental procedures allow us to perform a complete oral exam, to remove tartar both above & below the gum line on all sides of every tooth, & to proceed to tooth extractions or tissue biopsies if problems are identified. They also prevent our patients feeling stress, anxiety & pain during the procedure.
Amber did not need any teeth out, recovered quickly & ate as soon as she came round ❤️‍🩹

🧍🏼‍♀️🧍🏼🦷 We can take simple and easy steps to prevent children from being bitten.

🐶 Set dogs and children up for success by not leaving them together unattended.

👶 Children are unpredictable. They can get into one thing after the next. They’re kids, after all. It takes just a moment for a young child to invade a dog’s space.

🐕 Dogs are very predictable. They will react to stressful situations by either:
🔺Fleeing to get away
🔺Fighting their way out if they feel they have no options
🔺Freezing when they are totally overwhelmed.
🔺They may also “fidget” if they are feeling uneasy. These natural behaviors/instincts put children in a very bad position.

🏫 Teaching children appropriate dog interactions from a young age goes a long way.
