Lucy Beanland

I joined the Westwood team in 2019 as a student veterinary nurse. I attained a foundation degree (FdSc) at Askham Bryan College and qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in summer 2021. I have decided to carry on my studies, and I am currently working towards my BSc (Hons) degree in Veterinary Nursing.

My main areas of interest are surgical nursing and providing care (and cuddles) to our in-patients. I also find the diagnostic and laboratory side of veterinary nursing very interesting.

I have loved animals from a young age, and I currently have 2 pets, a 9 year old Labrador named Wilf and a rescued Tabby Cat, Freddie.

Being a veterinary nurse is incredibly rewarding, and I can’t wait to see what my future as an RVN brings!
