Episode 3 - Radio Vet Nurse Registered

Hi and welcome to episode 3 of “Registered”, I’m Cat Walker. If you missed episodes 1 and 2 of “Registered” you might want to go back and listen from the start. We’re at the halfway point of this 4 episode mini-series. In this episode we’ll be unpacking 2 concepts that have come up a lot over the last episodes. And those are - autonomy and utilisation. So, what is autonomy and why is it important? What is utilisation and what does it mean for veterinary nurses and technicians working in clinics? And what are some of the knock on effects of better utilisation for our patients, colleagues, and the veterinary businesses?  But, before we consider those concepts, I mentioned in the first episode that not everyone is onboard with registration. I don’t want to push a one-sided view that registration will only be good, so we need to look at some of the boundaries to getting on board with registration. Thanks for joining me on Radio Vet Nurse Registered. This series may be uncomfortable at times, but I believe that the time to get registered is here and I thank you for joining me on the journey. I would like to thank Vetoquinol and Vet Complaints Support for their sponsorship of the “Registered” mini series.
