About this course

In the high-pressure world of equine rescue, every second counts and so does your role. As an equine veterinary nurse, you’re not just part of the team; you’re a vital link in the rescue chain. This practical, scenario-based webinar is designed to give you the clarity and confidence to navigate emergency situations safely and effectively.

We’ll kick off with an introduction to our expert speakers before diving into the essentials: what happens at a rescue scene, who does what, and where you fit in. You’ll gain a clear understanding of rescue techniques, your legal responsibilities under Schedule 3, and how to make confident, informed decisions on the ground.

Real-life case examples and a live panel discussion will give you practical insights and a chance to ask your burning questions before we wrap up.


Learning outcomes

By the end of the course you will...

  • know what the role of the RVN is at rescue situations
  • have confidence in what this entails

Whether you're new to rescue or looking to sharpen your response skills, this course will help you stay safe, stay sharp, and step up when it matters most (and don’t forget to take a look at the BEVA BARTA guidelines for the role of the equine Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN) in veterinary response to civil emergencies.
