Nutrition is the cornerstone of all excellent veterinary care. This learning series with Georgia Woods-Lee will look at each life stage to ensure an optional recommendation is always given. From growth, throughout adulthood and into their senior years, nutrition plays a key role in maintaining health for all pets.
The courses will also discuss how nutritional requirements change in the presence of disease and will look at specific disease states which are strongly influenced by nutrition, focusing on the vital role veterinary nurses have in supporting the nutritional health of these patients.
