Pet Health Counsellor of the Year
A vet nurse who works at Rosemary Lodge Veterinary Hospital in Bath, has been awarded Pet Health Counsellor of the Year for 2012.
Sharon Curtis, a RVN and an advanced pet health counsellor (PHC) fought off 17 other PHC qualified nurses to win the award.
The award, along with £1,500 of high street vouchers, was presented to Sharon last month (October, 2012) at the national industry award ceremony. The annual ceremony celebrates veterinary professionals for promoting preventative health care and running pet health clinics in practice.
Renowned behaviourist and judge, Sarah Heath, said she was especially impressed with Sharon’s rabbit spa days, mobility clinics and sessions for geriatric pets, as well as her work visiting local schools to teach children about responsible pet ownership.
Sharon commented: “I’m delighted to be Royal Canin’s Pet Health Counsellor of the Year. Their scheme has given me the confidence and skills to develop specialist clinics at Rosemary Lodge Veterinary Hospital, which have proved to be hugely beneficial in giving our clients the specific advice and training for their pets’ needs.”
FIVP has shared a survey, inviting those working in independent practice to share their views on the CMA's proposed remedies.
