for

Vet Nurses

This workshop supports veterinary nurses who regularly assist with anaesthesia and
want to deepen their understanding of monitoring, depth assessment, and peri-operative patient care. The focus is on translating theory into confident, real-world practice across routine procedures and sedations. Nurses refine skills in pre-operative assessment, IV catheterisation, induction and intubation support, anaesthetic monitoring, recovery management, and pain recognition.

Practical case discussions and hands-on stations help nurses recognise changes early, respond appropriately, and confidently support veterinarians throughout the anaesthetic process.

Key learning areas:

  • Apply anaesthetic monitoring and peri-operative nursing principles in real clinical settings
  • Accurately assess anaesthetic depth and patient status
  • Recognise and respond to changes promptly
  • Effectively support veterinarians through all stages of routine anaesthesia and sedation- from pre-operative assessment to recovery and pain management.
