Advanced Veterinary Nursing (Rehabilitation Therapy)

This certificate will allow nurses to develop and advance their skills to enable them to critically assess the nursing and rehabilitation requirements of veterinary patients.

You will create appropriate nursing and rehabilitation plans utilising the highest professional standards, skills and knowledge to improve the health and welfare of animals.

You will be able to critically evaluate personal effectiveness and effectively and accurately communicate with peers and clients when supporting patients that require rehabilitation therapy.

During your studies you will demonstrate the development of the skills of critical reading, critical thinking and purposeful writing to create and justify rehabilitation plans that will improve outcomes for patients.
