Happy Vet Nurse day to our Special Nurses

Having worked in the industry for over 20 years, I have seen many vet nurses in my time. In most practices, you typically have one standout nurse. This nurse is the biggest advocate for patient care, has the most knowledge and is the first to put up their hand to help out. That nurse is like that because they truly love and see the value in the amazing work that they do.

When I started managing Oakleigh Central Vet, it struck me that we don’t have that one nurse. We currently have FIVE of them! All of our nurses are absolutely unique individuals but they adore their patients and have the highest level of respect towards their owners. So, knowing the above, here are some extra points about each of them.

Helen

Sharon

Just like flowers, separately they are wondrous on their own, but put together, they make a bouquet of the highest caliber. We are so grateful to have them call Oakleigh Central Vet their workplace and continue to raise the bar for General Practice nurses everywhere.

We appreciate you on Vet Nurse day and every day in between!
