Objectives
The course intends to make the student familiar with the practical parts that are included in the work of a veterinary nurse in an animal hospital/clinic.
On completion of the course, the student should be able to:
- perform elements of a hygienic nature that will prevent infection and disease transmission,
- use appropriate techniques at the medication, handling and feeding of animals,
- assist at treatments,
- apply appropriate techniques in anaesthesia and operating theatre routines,
- use current technology within image diagnostics,
- use appropriate sampling techniques and perform simple laboratory analyses,
- use established systems for documentation and medical records keeping.
Content
Working methods, environments and medical issues are highlighted from a nursing perspective. This takes place via practical skills training at animal hospitals and clinics and through a prescribed individual presentation. The practical elements make it possible for the student to apply their theoretical knowledge in veterinary nursing and veterinary medicine. The internship furthermore gives possibilities for personal development of the communicative and informative skills of the student. The individual presentation gives the student the opportunity to theorize and deepen their understanding of the practical elements of the course and this is presented orally and in written form.
Grading form
The grade requirements within the course grading system are set out in specific criteria. These criteria must be available by the course start at the latest.Formats and requirements for examination
Approved individual presentation, compulsory parts and approved participation in compulsory clinical teaching.
If a student has failed an examination, the examiner has the right to issue supplementary assignments. This applies if it is possible and there are grounds to do so.
The examiner can provide an adapted assessment to students entitled to study support for students with disabilities following a decision by the university. Examiners may also issue an adapted examination or provide an alternative way for the students to take the exam.
If this syllabus is withdrawn, SLU may introduce transitional provisions for examining students admitted based on this syllabus and who have not yet passed the course.
For the assessment of an independent project (degree project), the examiner may also allow a student to add supplemental information after the deadline for submission. Read more in the Education Planning and Administration Handbook.
Other information

Additional information
Discontinued practiceA student may receive a fail grade and be stopped from participating in the practical training with living animals if there is a tangible risk that the student, through severe incompetence, could injure animals, other persons, themselves, or valuable property if they continued to participate in the practical training. An individual action plan will be prescribed for the student and served to them in writing. The plan will be established by the department responsible for the course after consultation with a study counselor and the student concerned. This plan, which is decided by the programme director of studies, should indicate which deficiencies in knowledge and skills the student has, which kind of support the student can receive from the department, and when a control can take place that the deficiencies have been resolved. The plan will also specify how this control will be carried out. Each student has the right to a maximum of two control occasions, but no more than one per year. The student may not take part in practical training with living animals until the programme director of studies has controlled and confirmed that the student has the knowledge and skills that are required.
