Course Summary

Diabetes can be an overwhelming diagnosis for many pet owners. As one of the most common endocrine diseases facing small animals, we need to play our role in owner support and education. The disease is life long and involves a good level of knowledge and commitment from the veterinary team and owner. It is our role as veterinary nurses, to provide that baseline education to the owners, to get them on the right track. But diabetes is far from basic! Nursing management goes beyond the first consult, we can take charge of the patients life-long monitoring and alongside the veterinary surgeon, we can make a huge difference to the quality of life for the patient and owners alike.
