Episode 71 - Can we just let them?


Listen Later

In this special Veterinary Nursing Awareness Month (VNAM) episode, we’re joined by the brilliant Amelia Sherwood RVN, a passionate veterinary nurse, educator, and advocate for nurse progression and support. Amelia began her nursing career in 2008 and has since held a variety of roles across clinical practice, education, industry, and leadership.

 

From her early days in primary care and examining OSCEs, to supporting teams as a Regional Nursing Manager and now leading her own consultancy business, Amelia’s career is a testament to the diverse and dynamic pathways available to veterinary nurses. She is also widely known for her educational content on wound care, shared via her Instagram platform @TissueViabilityVetNurse.

 

This conversation was an absolute joy, Amelia speaks candidly about her passion for wound management and education, but also the real-life challenges she has faced, including redundancy, shifting job roles, and working through tough cultural changes within the veterinary sector.

 

We also touch on an important question: “Can we just let them?” Amelia reflects on the emotional realities of navigating major transitions and how she’s learned to advocate not only for animals but also for herself and her colleagues.

 

This is a powerful episode that celebrates the strength, adaptability, and brilliance of veterinary nurses while also acknowledging the pressures they face.
