Olivia Chisnall

Veterinary Nurse Looking For A Change...
Timaru,South Canterbury

Summary

I have been employed for the past six years as a fully qualified and registered veterinary nurse. The primary responsibilities of veterinary nurses are to maintain the welfare of all animals and to provide excellent patient care. The primary responsibilities include monitoring patients under anesthesia, performing radiographic imaging and diagnostics, and following cleaning and sterilization procedures. This role has also given me experience with client communication, invoicing, stock management, reception and administration tasks

I am looking to broaden my skill set in the workplace and I believe that veterinary nursing has given me significant practical experience and a great set of knowledge, as I move on to the next phase of my career.
