Rouse Hill Family Vets | Full Time
We've recently welcomed our sixth veterinarian, and as our hospital grows, we're looking for another experienced Veterinary Nurse or Veterinary Technician to join our team.
We're an independent small animal hospital, aFear Free Certified Practiceand anISFM Gold Cat Friendly Clinic.
We care about high standards, genuine teamwork, clear systems and helping good people keep developing.
This won't suit every nurse — and that's okay.

Enjoy clients as well as patients
Care about doing things properly
What nursing looks like here
Our nurses are an active part of the clinical team.
We use ateam-based consult model, so nurses often start consults, gather information, prepare the patient and client for the vet, and help conclude the consult by reinforcing the plan and organising next steps.
You'll also be involved in anaesthesia, surgery, IV catheter placement and blood collection, radiography, pathology, hospital care, nurse consults and client education.
We want nurses who think,



communicate and participate in patient care — not simply wait for the next task.
How we work
We use clear workflows, checklists and agreed systems because they help people do good work consistently.
Every team member has amonthly 1:1focused on feedback, development and next steps, and we set aside time every Wednesday for team training and meetings.
Our senior nurses, team leads and vets are taught how to coach and support the people around them.
We're also aneurodiversity-friendly workplace, with practical systems designed to reduce unnecessary friction and make it easier for people to succeed.
We invest heavily in our people.
In return, we expect ownership, reliability, follow-through, professional communication and a willingness to act on feedback.
