We are excited to announce that both our Melton and Syston practices are now accredited through the RCVS practice standards scheme! ✨

This is a voluntary scheme aiming to promote and maintain the highest standards of veterinary care.🩺

To become accredited, practices have to go through rigorous assessment every four years (as well as spot checks between assessments) and will have met a range of minimum standards including hygiene, 24-hour emergency cover, staff training, certain types of equipment and cost estimation procedures.

Registered Veterinary Nurse - full or part time hours

This is an exciting opportunity for a Registered Veterinary Nurse to join our expanding independent practice in Melton Kings Veterinary Centre - Melton Mowbray

For more information and to apply email [email protected] or head to our website: https://www.kingsvetcentre.com/veterinary-nurse-melton/

Having outgrown our current premises in Melton Mowbray, we are moving to a brand-new veterinary hospital and are seeking an additional RVN to join the team. We welcome applications from candidates who are keen to be involved in all aspects of small animal veterinary nursing, bringing new ideas and motivation to the current close-knit team.

A number of our RVNs are certificate holders; we actively encourage and fund these. In addition to a generous personal CPD allowance, we hold regular in-house CPD days for the whole team to continually improve and advance our standards. The whole team has access to Vetstream.

Currently going through the RCVS Practice Standards Scheme to achieve hospital status, we pride ourselves on providing our own out-of-hours service to our clients. With dedicated night nurses, there are no weeknights on call in this role. However, participation in our 1:5 Saturday and Sunday day rota (though currently 1:7), along with an equal share of bank holidays is expected.
Our full-time nurses work 4 days a week on an 8:00pm – 6:00pm or 8:30am – 6:30pm shift pattern with paid lunch breaks. Rotating between inpatient, theatre and consulting roles throughout the week, nurses can get involved in a varied caseload of small animals.

Package includes:
🐾£28-30k per annum*
🐾6 weeks holiday including bank holidays*
🐾CPD and VN certificates funded and encouraged
🐾Free flu jabs and VDU eye care vouchers
🐾Generous staff discount scheme for your pets
🐾Employee assistance programme
🐾Full access to Vetstream
🐾Pension scheme
🐾RCVS fees paid

UPDATE
Sadly the cat found in Knipton, having first thought to have been hit by a car, did in fact have a blood clot blocking the blood supply to her hindlegs. This is a very painful condition and in this case too advanced to treat. In the interests of her welfare the decision was taken to put her to sleep.
Thank you to everyone who shared our post, it was very much appreciated.

We are urgently seeking the owner of a female tortoiseshell cat that has been brought into us after being hit by a car in Knipton. Unfortunately she isn't microchipped. Please contact the practice if you think she is yours on 01664 567481
