Join us on September 26th for our Fundamental Practical Skills in Critical Care for Vets workshop sponsored by Knight Benedikt at VetPartners Veterinary Training Centre, Sydney, Australia!

This one-day workshop will provide you with an understanding of the common systems derangements in emergency and critically ill patients, and how to appropriately manage them. Many people dread the phone call signalling the arrival of a hit-by-car or seizuring animal. After attending this course, you will feel a lot more confident in your approach to these patients, and less like hiding under the desk!
