Implementation

Assessment Admitting the patient The Veterinary Nurse should gain information regarding the abilities of the animal. By using open questions, the Veterinary Nurse can obtain more than a yes/no answer, and find out what the animal’s normal routine is for each of the abilities. Eat Drink Urinate Defecate Breathe Normally Maintain body temperature Groom and clean itself Sleep and rest adequately Express normal behaviour Mobilise adequately Influencing Factors Sometimes owner-related factors can influence the treatment which may be provided to the animal. • Cultural - the owner may willingly express any cultural/religious beliefs that may affect the treatment plan – this should be clearly recorded on the care plan. • Financial – ask the owner if the animal is insured - if the answer is no, offer to provide them with an estimate cost for treatment and if they are worried about the potential cost they may consult with the vet at this stage (this should be recorded on the care plan as it may change treatment the plan for the animal) • The owner should be kept up to date throughout the whole care plan to ensure they are always happy with the treatment and care provided.
