I know what it's like in practice, trying to find the scissors, thermometer, nail clippers, stitch removers etc all those little bits and pieces we use everyday, well, after a discussion here on the forum, some good tips were mentioned - Sal the 1st said about using a bumbag - one of those your wear around your waist. Thats a fab idea! I hope Sal doesnt feel I stole her idea lol but it's too good to keep to ourselves!
PS: Whilst you're here, take a moment to see our latest job opportunities for vet nurses.
Another good tip is magnetic metal strips. We have large metal strips in each room for all nail clippers, scissors and artery forceps to be readily available! And everyone knows where they are =)
