The Vet Nurse Day is an annual event celebrated by the NZVNA. However, since last year, it has been decided that just one day isn’t enough to show how much we appreciate veterinary nurses. Hence, even though appreciating vet nurses should be done every day, the NZVNA decided to extend the period for a week. Hence, Vet Nurse Awareness Week was created and celebrated from 8-12 October last year.
Vet Nurse Awareness Week was established to give an opportunity to vet nurses and clinics to celebrate the veterinary nurse profession. The aim of the celebration is to educate the public about veterinary nurses and the role they have in the veterinary team. Moreover, the goal of the Vet Nurse Awareness Week is to allow vet nurses to acknowledge each other for their dedication and excellent performance and improve the professionalism of veterinary nurses to veterinarians and the public.
Hence, if you have a vet nurse in your life, you should show them how much they mean to you and how much their work is appreciated. The best way to do so is by giving them a gift. Here are some of the best gifts you can get a veterinary nurse to show your appreciation.
