Veterinary nurses play a vital role within the veterinary industry in caring for sick, injured and hospitalised animals, and contributing to the ongoing care of animals. This includes undertaking skilled nursing procedures, delivering medical treatments and diagnostic tests. Veterinary nurses also take on the responsibilities of customer care within a surgery, clinic or hospital setting, and therefore must develop client-facing skills alongside knowledge of animal care. The BSc Veterinary Nursing course is designed to produce veterinary nurses who have the knowledge and skills to make a significant contribution to animal health and welfare. You will be exposed to practical training within the first three foundation years of the programme, where you have the opportunity to develop your knowledge and skills within a real-life environment. At the end of this period (providing you have met the assessment requirements), you will achieve your professional veterinary nursing qualification via the award of a FdSc Veterinary Nursing. The FdSc Veterinary Nursing is accredited by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) and successful completion of this interim award permits registration with the RCVS as a veterinary nurse.
