Description

Working with sick patients will often require them to have at least some tubes, drains or lines placed in order to commence treatment and nutrition. As veterinary nurses, we are able to place and maintain many of these in our patients under schedule 3. It is important that we understand the different equipment available to us in order to make informed decisions on which tubes may best benefit our patients. By ensuring we are competent in maintaining the different tubes and lines our patients may have, we not only benefit through enhanced job satisfaction, but we can also help relieve our busy veterinary surgeons too.
