Now written in the main by veterinary nurses this book comprehensively covers all aspects of the veterinary nursing role from client communication to nutritional support. All chapters have been revised in line with changes in legislation and regulation, but also theoretical and practical aspects. Greater emphasis on the veterinary practice structure including the role of corporate businesses and use of social media bring this edition fully up to date. New chapters on emergency & critical care, fluid therapy, practice and staff management are updated, as well as anesthesia and analgesia chapters; a new chapter on equine behaviour and recognition of pain is included. 880 p.
