The College of Animal Welfare is delighted to announce a brand new event for 2015 – the Head Nurse Congress on 16 and 17 May.
Aimed at current and aspiring head nurses, this new two day congress – believed to the first of its kind – is set to provide valuable CPD that is truly relevant to the role of the head nurse in today’s modern veterinary practice.
Packed full of exciting speakers, delegates will have the opportunity to listen to a wide variety of lectures including communication and leadership skills, managing conflict and bullying, increasing client and employee loyalty, maximising the use and talent of veterinary nurses in practice, influencing people, effective decision making and managing cash flow.
Marketing and Development Director, Leslie Heaton-Smith, said “Veterinary nurse training is very intense and prepares nurses for the technical and professional capabilities that the profession demands. However, alongside technical skills, effective leadership and management plays a key role in maximising team performance, which ultimately benefits patient and client care”. He continued “We hope that this new two day congress will allow those working in a head nurse role to return to practice feeling empowered to make positive changes”.
This year’s congress will be held at the College’s centre in Cambridgeshire and is available at the special introductory rate of just £99+VAT for the both days! Limited spaces are available.
