Congratulations to RVN Laura
Huge congratulations to veterinary nurse Laura Holderness who has achieved her Bachelor of Science with Honours in Animal Behaviour with a 2.1.
Laura achieved this alongside working at the practice, and with gorgeous baby Elijah arriving earlier this year. Her qualification will enable her to become a qualified Clinical Animal Behaviourist, an amazing achievement.
We have long supported Laura's interest in behaviour, she completed her nursing certificate in this area back in 2023. As a result of this interest the practice team have been trained in methods to reduce anxiety in our patients, we have achieved Dog Friendly Clinic status, Laura has successfully been offering behaviour first aid consultations, and we have a core team of nurses running puppy socialisation clinics and socialisation visits for nervous dogs. Supporting your team's interests really is win-win!
