    A day in the life of an RVN Team Member:
    'We start the day at different times dependent upon which shift we are working but it's usually between 8.30am and 10.30am. Each nurse is assigned a task at the beginning of the day so everyone knows what they are doing and this rotates daily. So one day you might be admits, then ops nurse, another you will be consult nurse, another dispensary etc.

    This means that we all get a chance to work in different areas and helps us to keep updated and current.

    We have all the usual kit including digital xray and laboratory equipment. All of the nurses are very hands on and regular CPD is encouraged.

    We work closely with the vets including regularly triaging emergency cases, carrying out minor surgery , xrays and blood tests.

    A lot of practices just don't utilise nurses skills and this is where Vets 4 Pets Penzance stands out. You will use all of your skills and develop in those areas that you need further training with.
    We all 'muck in' with cleaning and prep for the next day. We average 5 ops a day and we always have a full consult list of our own.

    It's a busy practice with lots of support in a great location' If you are interested in applying, please get in touch with Claire - Location: TR18 3AP Pets just see people.

    They aren't biased and they don't discriminate. We take our inspiration from pets, and we value and respect difference in all its forms.
