Nursing Edge – an introduction to emergency and critical care

At Vets Now, we are committed to the development of the next generation of the veterinary profession. That’s why we heavily invest in our induction programmes to support Registered Veterinary Nurses in discovering a route into emergency practice. With CPD-led training Nursing Edge is designed for RVN’s looking to take their first steps into ECC and will equip you with the skills and confidence needed to thrive in emergency practice.

Develop your emergency skills

Nursing Edge contains two weeks of virtual lectures with six weeks practical training taking place in your base clinic. The programme has been designed to give nurses the best start in a new emergency and critical care role, providing valuable training and a competitive salary from day one. Content includes;

Emergency diagnostics
Emergency surgery
Fluid therapy
Neurological emergencies

We look after you, so you can look after them

Recognising hard work is important to us. Our Nursing Edge Nurses are paid a salary from day one of the training programme and we offer a first-class benefits and rewards package that includes:

7 weeks pro rata annual leave
Your birthday as a paid day off

UK Standard Pension contributions – 5% Employee/3% Employer
Professional membership fees
Up to 50% discounted staff pet care

A diverse caseload and a work-life balance – you can have both

The rota includes a share of weekday nights, weekends, bank holidays and no more than three shifts in a row. Vets Now handles the largest emergency and critical care caseload in Europe and you will see a diverse range of both medical and surgical cases – an ideal opportunity for development and learning beyond the Nursing Edge programme.
