The IV arrived after we'd finished most things too - I did TPR on a dog that was waking up post castration instead. It can be anything from the unit 3 of the portfolio, so general nursing stuff (or first aid if some poor animal is unlucky enough to time an accident with your IV visit!)

In the last place i worked in the IV came and spent some time just observing the nurse in the kennel block as she just went about day to day things. She asked her some questions, gave us all feedback and that was it.

Hi,

One of my old students needed to have this done and all that was required was TPR a cat, explain normal parameters, ensure cat was secure/restrained correctly. Do you give pre op antibiotics and if so could that wait until the IV arrives if the premed is already given?

There wasn't a great deal more to be done than a standard assessment really and was over with quickly too!
