VetNurse.co.uk and Improve Veterinary Practice have launched the Clinical Article Club, where, much like a book club, vet nurses are invited to read and then discuss mainly clinical articles with each other and with the author.
Time spent discussing the articles on the VetNurse Forum can be claimed towards your annual CPD requirement.
The first article up for discussion is “Newborn resuscitation following dystocia or caesarean section“, by Tom Towey, MRCVS, who will be joining us in the forum this week.
Tom is an RCVS Advanced Practitioner in Emergency and Critical Care working at Vets Now in Manchester.
He graduated from the University of Glasgow in 2011, before spending seven years at Petmedics Emergency Hospital in Manchester.
He gained his Advanced Practitioner status in Emergency and Critical Care in 2016 and joined Vets Now in 2018. He now lectures on a wide variety of aspects of emergency care .
VetNurse.co.uk clinical editor Alasdair Hotston Moore said: “For veterinary nurses, I think the Clinical Article Club adds a really valuable extra dimension to clinical reading.
“It’s not just the opportunity to ask questions of the author, but also to discuss the implications and practicalities of the article among yourselves.”
VetNurse.co.uk Editor, Arlo Guthrie said: “More than that, it’s also in a closed professional community where you can be 100 percent confident of a friendly atmosphere and authoritative opinions with provenance.
“And more even than that, the questions you ask and the discussion you have are then available as a useful, searchable resource for everyone in the profession.”
So do come and join in.
