Jess - Human Extraordinaire

In this episode I caught up with Jess who was once described to me as "human extraordinaire"! Jess is a registered human nurse, a registered veterinary nurse, and works both in general practice and as a vet nurse educator. She has her Cert IV in Veterinary Nursing and Diploma in ECC, a double degree in biomedical science, and a bachelor of registered (human) nursing. Jess lives on a farm with her kids, her fur kids, and her vet husband. She's extremely passionate about educating and developing veterinary nurses in practice, and also shared some really honest insight into the challenges of returning to work after having kids. Jess and I discovered a lot of common ground in our thoughts on the veterinary industry and often found ourselves finishing each other's sentences. It was a pleasure to hear her story and she well and truly lived up to her reputation as human extraordinaire.
