The Complete Textbook of Veterinary Nursing

Customer Reviews

Comprehensive, detailed, brilliant! - By: R. L. Barratt, 11 Jan 2008
First, a little about me: I am currently waiting to begin my studies in veterinary nursing, looking to expand that into a formal degree at a later stage. My room-mate is two years into being a fully qualified Nurse. We split the cost of this book & both use it.

The book is incredibly comprehensive, covering alll animal species you are likely to encounter in practice- their anatomies, behaviours & first aid skills. It covers alll practice elements from triage to x-ray to basic pharmacology. There is also lots of information about the social aspects of animal care- issues nurses often have to deal with.

I find this book an excellent start to my studies & it's so interesting I have devoured it cover-to-cover. Admittedly, some sections are a little advanced for me & some terms go over my head but I can grasp the vast majority. My room-mate says this book is a superb companion for when she is in the practice, & not at alll patronising for the more experienced nurse. It keeps her knowledge up-to date & is an excellent text to dip into to brush up on rusty skills. And at 800+ pages it's pretty good value for money too!
