Review
“The Consulting Veterinary Nurse’ is a highly informative, well–written book and deserves its place in the practice library or, better still, the nurses’ consultation room.” ( Veterinary Record , 2 February 2013)
Review
The Consulting Veterinary Nurse is a useful reference for all veterinary nurses who run clinics in their practice. The Author, Nicola Ackerman, is an experienced Registered Veterinary Nurse and she has drawn on her knowledge to provide a comprehensive guide, which includes information on how to run efficient and effective well pet clinics and medical clinics. The book contains a wealth of information on all aspects of running a clinic, including: how to provide clients and patients with an excellent level care; the answers to questions which clients frequently ask in a clinic; how to gather a patient’s history; carrying out an examination and the necessary equipment for this – along with a list of common abbreviations. Nicola also discusses the role of the veterinary nurse and the consideration of nutritional and behavioral issues within the setting of a veterinary nurse–lead clinic. This book will be a useful reference for veterinary nurses who are experienced in running clinics and those who are just starting out, alike. – Helen Farrant on behalf of the BVNA

This is possibly the most basic textbook ever - there is nothing in here you wouldn't have already learnt at college, as the other review says there could have been so many additional USEFUL chapters such as pain management clinics, but sadly the useful aspects are lacking!

I was a very excited to revieve this book, as a student nurse I feel we don't get taught about nurse consultations enough and there is no other books like it on the market.
I was disappointed with this book, as I feel it focuses on nutrion a lot, I know it is a huge impact in veterinary nursing today, but I feel the title of the book is miss leading.
I thought it would include post op checks, signs to look out for in post op patients, client worries etc.
Parasite control advise, common house hold posionings, simple bandaging, client wound advice, pre and post neutering advice, obesity clinics, puppy & kitten checks, breeding info etc, the list could go on.
There is non of the above in the book.
I would only buy this book if you are interested in nutritional advice for medical disorders. On the plus is has been written nicely.
