This role will see you:

  • Delivering a high standard of holistic nursing care to critically ill and injured patients
  • Acting as a senior clinical resource during shifts, supporting both nursing and veterinary teams
  • 70% clinical and 30% administrative, allowing you to maintain your hands-on clinical skills while taking on responsibilities that help support the day-to-day operations of the department
  • Mentoring and guiding less experienced nurses to build confidence, skills, and clinical judgement
  • Assisting with anaesthesia, advanced procedures, and surgery
  • In-house laboratory testing, complemented by advanced diagnostic tools including ultrasound, endoscopy and CT
