Review

“With the increasing demands of equine practice has come the need for well trained and competent equine nurses. There have been significant improvements in and expansion of the equine Veterinary Nurse training syllabus over the past few years to meet these demands. This new and updated Equine Veterinary Nursing 2e covers all aspects of the new syllabus with well written and illustrated chapters from a wide range of knowledgable and experienced authors. The British Equine Veterinary Association is pleased to endorse this textbook as a ‘must have’ for all trainee equine veterinary nurses and their training practices.” –  Deidre M Carson BVSc(Syd) MRCVS; Immediate Past President; BEVA
