Permanent Ophthalmology Veterinary Nurse - Derby

Role: Permanent Ophthalmology Veterinary Nurse

Type: Small Animal

Location: Derby

Practice: Beautifully combines the benefits of a specialist-led, multidisciplinary support infrastructure with the flexibility of being independently owned by members of the veterinary team.

Facilities: They strive to deliver world-class patient care and their fantastic facilities provide a superb care environment, including 13 consultation rooms, 7 hospital wards, 5 theatres, full advanced imaging suite, 3 ultrasound rooms, an endoscopy suite, hydrotherapy pool, and treadmills, and dedicated chemo & radio-iodine treatment rooms define the setting.

Team: The ophthalmology team is a friendly dynamic team that comprises a nurse, an intern, and four specialist ophthalmologists who see a large range of medical and surgical cases. The team is dedicated to outstanding patient care and is happy to share their knowledge.

Duties:

  • The successful candidate will organise the ophthalmology department and team members throughout the day and liaise with other areas as required (theatre, wards, imaging).

  • There will be opportunities to assist the ophthalmologists with surgical and non-surgical procedures, and time to provide one to one care to our very important patients.
  • While in the ophthalmology team you will be working with the theatre and in-patient care teams in a busy referral hospital as well as the wider team at the practice.
  • There are plenty of occasions to work alongside the other dedicated veterinary professionals.

Salary: Competitive Salary - Commensurate with experience (between £20,000-£30,000 p/a)
