Abstract

Following on from my career change story where I described my move from a creative career to a Student Veterinary Nurse (SVN), comes the opportunity to reflect on my first year as a Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN) since qualifying in April 2019. From first opinion practice, a location change, and then onwards to referral hospital world, how has so much happened within twelve months of putting on “that” badge?

Sally has worked in a variety of small animal first opinion practices in Kent over the past five years and qualified in her late thirties as an RVN from College of Animal Welfare in April 2019. She now works as an RVN at a referral hospital in Canterbury. Her special interests in practice lie within the worlds of wound management as well as communication. She currently lives in rural Kent with her partner, their working cocker spaniel Henry, two outdoor cats and four indoor cats including a very ‘characterful’ Cornish Rex called Fig.
