Veterinary Nurse - Sydney Veterinary Hospital
Looking for a veterinary nursing role that will challenge, inspire and accelerate your growth?

The RSPCA NSW Sydney Veterinary Hospital is quick-paced, dynamic, and often unpredictable, offering exposure to an incredibly diverse caseload that will develop your skills and confidence faster than you thought possible!

Hospital in-patient care and treatment, including placing IVCs and venipuncture
Emergency management including triage and assessment of incoming animals
Client care including providing support and education as a Consult Nurse, as well as working at reception on a rotating basis

Anaesthetic preparation and monitoring
Diagnostics including pathology and imaging
