Some people don't know what a Veterinary Nurse is or what our job entails.
Let me just give you a breakdown!
I AM an anesthesiologist, a radiography technician, a theatre assistant and scrub nurse, I can perform minor surgery, I am a pharmacist, a lab technician, a phlebotomist, a dental hygienist, a physical therapist, a midwife, a surrogate, a teacher, a groomer, a nutritionist, a receptionist, a telephonist, a reassuring ear on the end of the phone.
I provide a loving hand, a shoulder to cry on, a friend to cry with, a sucker for a furry face, a face to lick, a vet’s best friend, a pet’s best friend, a babysitter, a mother/father, a playmate, a chew toy, a protector, a feeder and a cleaner.
I CAN make the pain go away, save a life, see what’s wrong, clean anything, ease a mind, fill a drug order, show the right way, end suffering, give kisses, get kisses, clean teeth, & bring someone to do the right thing.
I HAVE a strong stomach, endured countless scars, scratches, and bites, cried with a stranger, cried into the fur of too many lifeless bodies, a big heart, a thoughtful mind, the strength to do the right thing even when it hurts, the ability to fall in love in 5 seconds, and the deepest love for all creatures.
I work days, I might work nights, I work weekends.
I hate it when i am asked, why did you not become a Vet?
I am not 'JUST' a Veterinary Nurse, I AM 'A' VETERINARY NURSE ❤
To all fellow Vet Nurses - we are an awesome bunch and sometimes we don’t get the full recognition we deserve! We all deserve a thank you and a pat on the back from time to time - so THANK YOU to each and every one of my fellow nurses for being so bloody AWESOME!!
