Burtons offers free 1:1s with new Clinical Team

Burtons offers free 1:1s with new Clinical Team
The Burtons ethos has always been that customer support should be at the heart of everything they do, as part of this, the introduction of the Burtons Academy is intended to further the clinical support they can offer. The focus is currently on various anaesthesia topics and has already been rolled out at exhibition lecture halls, CPD days, training sessions, in CPD articles and in product training.

Consisting of Keith Simpson BVSc MRCVS MIET - Clinical Director and Courtney Scales DipVN NCert (Anaesth) RVN - Clinical Educator, together, the clinical team are developing engaging CPD based on the firm belief that combining theory-based learning with hands-on practical CPD provides knowledge and techniques that can be applied immediately in clinical practice.

The 1:1 consultations with Keith and Courtney will run for both days of the exhibition and will be held in a dedicated zone on the stand (C30). They will cover the topics of ‘anaesthesia monitoring techniques’ and ‘how to ventilate your patient under anaesthesia’.

Visit our website or follow us on socials to find out how to book your space.

Courtney is originally from New Zealand where she trained and qualified. She has been working as a veterinary nurse since 2007 and after working in several small animal clinics in New Zealand, an anaesthesia passion took her to a large referral hospital in Australia. In 2016, she made the move
