Veterinary Nurse of the Year

NZVNA, in conjunction with Hill's Pet Nutrition, realise the importance of veterinary nurses. The Hill's Veterinary Nurse of the Year Award has been launched to recognise veterinary nurses who advocate and significantly contribute to the care of their patients and who are an integral part of the veterinary health care team

Congratulations to NZVNA/HILLS VETERINARY NURSE OF THE YEAR 2020 - MICHELLE MARTIN

Since starting at Animal Referral Centre in 2016 Michelle has gone from strength to strength and her knowledge base has expanded phenomenally through both learning on the job and her seemingly endless desire for CPD. She is now a strong advocate for multi-modal analgesia and is working towards sitting her veterinary technician specialist examinations in 2022 in Anaesthesia and Analgesia.

Michelle’s enthusiasm for learning extends to sharing her knowledge and she has put together presentations for the veterinary nursing team, demonstrating excellent leadership in her learning and drive to teach others.
Michelle is not daunted by the workload and leads the team by example as she takes on the challenge of the smooth running of the surgical service.
