VetNurse.co.uk and Improve Veterinary Practice have launched the Clinical Article Club, where, much like a book club, vet nurses are invited to read and then discuss mainly clinical articles with each other and with the author, in the VetNurse Forum.

Time spent discussing the articles can be claimed towards the annual CPD requirement by pressing the ‘Claim CPD’ link at the top of the forum discussion thread. 

The first article up for discussion is "Newborn resuscitation following dystocia or caesarean section", by Tom Towey MRCVS who will be joining us in the forum this week. 

Tom is an RCVS Advanced Practitioner in Emergency & Critical Care working at Vets Now in Manchester.

He graduated from the University of Glasgow in 2011, before spending 7 years at Petmedics Emergency Hospital in Manchester.

He gained his Advanced Practitioner status in Emergency and Critical Care in 2016 and joined Vets Now in 2018.

He now lectures on a wide variety of aspects of emergency care . 

VetNurse.co.uk Clinical Editor Alasdair Hotston Moore said: “For veterinary nurses, I think this adds a really valuable extra dimension to your clinical reading.
 
“It’s not just the opportunity to ask questions of the author, but also to discuss the implications and practicalities of the article amongst yourselves. 
 
VetNurse.co.uk Editor, Arlo Guthrie said: “More than that, it’s also in a closed professional community where you can be 100% confident of a friendly atmosphere and authoritative opinions with provenance.
 
“And more even than that, the questions you ask and the discussion you have are then available as a useful, searchable resource for everyone in the profession.”
 
So do come and join in.
