In this episode of Focal Point, the IMV Clinical team chat with two special guests about the magic that happens when vet nurses start performing ultrasound examinations in practice.
It all began with a conversation about getting started with ultrasound between our Scotland Account Manager, Amy Thompson RVN, and Jodie Harper RVN at her practice, Wallace Vets in Angus. Following this, Jodie attended our Ultrasonography for Vet Nurses course and the rest, as they say, is history!
We will discuss how Jodie’s skills with the scanner have inspired colleagues to attend our courses, as well as arranging a bespoke in-practice training session for the vets and nurses to learn alongside each other on their own machine. Listen in as the podcast team talk pyometras, ex-laps, pericardial effusions and triage, and discuss the hugely positive effect that upskilling the team has had on the practice.
