Vet Nurse Duties & Salary in Canada
In Canada, Vet Nurses, often referred to as Registered Veterinary Technicians (RVTs), are essential members of the veterinary healthcare team. They assist veterinarians in providing care to animals, both large and small. RVTs perform various duties, such as monitoring patients during surgery, administering medications, taking X-rays, collecting laboratory samples, and educating pet owners on animal health. Canada's diverse geography offers unique opportunities for Vet Nurses. In rural areas like Alberta, you may find positions involving large livestock, including cattle and horses, while in urban centers like Toronto and Vancouver, you'll primarily work with companion animals.
Key skills for this role include compassion for animals, technical proficiency, strong communication skills, and the ability to handle emotionally challenging situations. To become a qualified RVT in Canada, one typically completes a two-year accredited program and passes the national licensing exam.
Work opportunities exist in major cities across Canada, including Toronto, Vancouver, and Calgary, as well as in smaller towns with veterinary clinics. The expected salary range for Vet Nurses (RVTs) in Canada is approximately CAD 40,000 to CAD 60,000 per year, with an hourly rate of around CAD 20 to CAD 30.
