With an extended bank holiday here, we wanted to let you know that our opening hours on Monday 2 May 2022 will vary from our usual opening hours. 

Whether you’re planning a weekend break or a few days at home, we will be here over the Easter weekend should you need us; however, our opening hours will vary from our usual times.

As with any business in Kent, a vet practice such as ours at Warren House Vetsneeds a strong supporting team for the non-clinical business functions. The client care team will generally be the first and last port of call for pets and their owner. Depending on the size of the practice, this can include:

A patient care assistant in Kent works alongside and supports the whole practice team at Warren House Vets to achieve the highest standards of patient care. Under the direction and supervision of a veterinary surgeon or registered veterinary nurse (RVN) they will assist with monitoring of inpatients, infection control and handling animals safely for procedures such as injections, blood samples, bandage changes and nail clipping.

Ask most veterinary practices in Kent and they will tell you that their Registered Veterinary Nurses (RVNs) are at the very heart of everything they do. We are no different here at Warrenhouse Vets.

Such is the respect for RVNs that a whole month is dedicated to celebrating their roles – Veterinary Nurse Awareness Month takes place every May and is recognised worldwide.

Whilst the role of a vet nurse in Kent is centred around the care and treatment of animals, they also spend a significant amount of their time with pet owners, offering support, advice and guidance.

Spring is an exciting time for most of us in Kent, pets included! Lighter nights mean more opportunities for being outdoors in the warmer Kent conditions. To ensure a happy and safe season for your animals, take a minute to make yourself aware of hidden dangers which could lead to a poorly pet.

Does your dog come into regular contact with other dogs in Kent? Maybe out on walks, at the park, or when they’re staying in kennels?

Our veterinary surgeons in Kent (commonly known as vets) serve the healthcare needs of animals. Once qualified as a vet, there are many roles such as teaching, research, government and clinical work. Clinical vets can work with farm animals, zoo animals, horses, laboratory animals, pets or a mixture. It is an incredibly diverse and challenging job.
