Compassionate care beyond the clinic: The vital role of Veterinary Nurses in Palliative Care

Veterinary nurses play a critical, yet often underappreciated, role in palliative care providing compassionate support to both pets and their owners during some of the most difficult times. In palliative care, nurses are essential in ensuring comfort and quality of life for terminally ill pets, offering pain management, emotional support, and guidance for owners navigating these challenging decisions. As we look at ways to support pet owners during this process, we are uniquely positioned to help alleviate the burden on clinics by providing in-home care options.

In this lecture, we’ll discuss the invaluable role that veterinary nurses play in these sensitive areas, and how we can extend our expertise beyond the clinic to offer much-needed relief and comfort to pet owners during these emotional times. It’s about more than just medical care; it’s about supporting the hearts and minds of our clients when they need it most.
