UQ VETS Vet Nurses & Technicians Seminar- Tick paralysis; care of the recumbent patient

27 September 2017
6:30pm to 9:00pm
UQ Gatton Campus

UQ VETS Vet Nurses & Technicians CE Seminar on Tick Paralysis; Care of the Recumbent Patient

The UQ VETS Small Animal Hospital invites you to an educational seminar.

It’s warming up and the paralysis ticks are on the move!  Join us for an in depth conversation of all things Ticks.  We will discuss the types of ticks in the area, their lifecycles, prevention, common treatment practices and nursing considerations.  These truly are cases where excellent nursing can make a huge difference to the outcome of your patient.  

We have paired this with another relevant talk on “Nursing the Recumbent Patient”.  Recumbent patients often require long-term management from committed nursing and tech staff.  These patients are dependent on our care and we will discuss the treatments we can do to help prevent further issues during their hospital stay. 

Presented by Gary Fitzgerald Lead Veterinary Technician and Tinika Gillespie Anaesthesia Nurse (ECC & IM VTS)

Registration fee to attend this event will be $10 per person (students $5).  Click here to register.
