VET NURSES

Empowering veterinary nurses to advocate confidently leads to better care, stronger relationships, and happier, healthier dogs. 

"As veterinary nurses, we are the dedicated advocates for our patients, ensuring their voices are heard. I truly hope that with the support of CAM, you will feel empowered to speak up and champion the well-being of the dogs in your care. 

I know how challenging it can be to fit everything into a busy day, especially when time with clients is limited. That’s why the incredible team at CAM has created a wealth of resources and training, all accessible at the click of a button, so you can build your knowledge and confidence from the comfort of your own home. 

I hope that you find CAM as invaluable as I have in elevating myself as a nurse—helping me feel more confident, informed, and empowered to make a real difference in the lives of the dogs I care for every day. "

Explaining everything about arthritis care in one short appointment isn’t easy — especially when owners are already overwhelmed. That’s why CAM’s Owner Resources were created — to make ongoing education simple, effective, and time-saving.

Designed with both owners and veterinary nurses in mind, these resources build on the advice you give in clinic, offering clear, evidence-based information and practical tools that guide owners step by step. They even include tracking templates to help monitor progress between visits.

By sharing them, you’ll save time, reduce repeated explanations, and see better compliance and understanding from every caregiver — resulting in happier owners, more confident teams, and stronger patient outcomes.
Explore the Owner Resources today — they’ll quickly become an essential part of your toolkit.

We know how hard it can be to keep owners engaged once they leave the clinic. That’s where CAM’s MemberZone steps in — your partner in owner education and osteoarthritis care.

Created to support both caregivers and you, the veterinary nurse, it offers step-by-step courses, videos, and downloadable tools that reinforce your advice and help owners manage their dog’s arthritis confidently at home. The result? Less repetition, better compliance, and improved care.

You’ll also gain access to professional resources, a supportive community, and live Tea & Chat sessions with CAM’s founder, Hannah Capon — all designed to help you grow and save valuable time.
