Abstract

Bereavement is an issue that all pet owners and animal care staff face. Veterinary nurses frequently face not only the bereavement of clients, but also their own as pet owners, or from taking part in euthanasia. As a result, veterinary nurses are at risk of further challenges such as disenfranchised or complicated grief. This article discusses what is known about the experience of bereavement, methods to support those experiencing bereavement, and how these may affect practicing veterinary nurses.
