The Royal Highland Show is the highlight of
the Scottish agricultural calendar. This year JMICAWE's veterinary nurse, Hayley
Walters, was helping on the University of Edinburgh's stand chatting to the
public about veterinary and animal welfare issues, promoting the work that the
university does and the courses it offers. Joining her, and only two weeks in
to her new job, was Hayley's maternity cover Jess Davies.
Jess has been veterinary nursing for 10 years and has
previously worked at Cambridge Vet School, Dick White Referrals in Newmarket
and volunteered for The Esther Honey Foundation on the South Pacific island of
Rarotonga - the only clinic covering the whole of The Cook Islands and offering
free veterinary care to all of its residents. Her patients included cats, dogs
and goats and Jess was involved in training new veterinary nurses and
supporting newly qualified vets.
'Having recently returned from travelling, working and
volunteering overseas, I was ready for a new challenge once I returned to the
UK. I am very happy to be in Edinburgh and feel privileged to be involved with
the great work that JMICAWE does promoting the welfare of animals and assisting
in the education of vets, students, and nurses in many different countries.
Changing attitudes towards the way animals are treated, from the harmful use of
live dogs and sheep used to teach surgical skills to vet students, to improving
inpatient care in veterinary teaching hospitals via a veterinary nurse training
programme, is an ongoing effort and I am very proud to be able to use my
passion for animal welfare to contribute to this inspirational work.'
We are very pleased to have Jess join our team and her
first project is to carry on helping The University of Peradeniya set up Sri
Lanka's first ever veterinary nurse (VN) training programme. She will also be
leading the project to create the accompanying inaugural Veterinary Nursing
Skills Online Course, aimed at student VNs and lecturers working in countries
that don't currently have a recognised VN training programme. We wish her all
the best and Hayley too as she prepares to leave to have her first baby.
In addition, the DOE also checks the credits that the workers get from the schools. The assessments are conducted at regular intervals and then the employers are charged with providing proper credits. Source for more about electrician training cost.
