Abstract

Monitoring the clinical condition of a patient through measurement of physiological parameters is a crucial role of both veterinary and human centred nursing. Within the NHS, the use of Early Warning Scores (EWS) has improved patient outcomes through early detection and escalation of deteriorating patients. This article provides an introduction to EWS and challenges veterinary nurses to consider and critique this clinical decision-making tool within the context of their veterinary patients. It aims to support a broader One Health approach, whereby human-centred nursing is used as a resource to stimulate innovation within Veterinary Nursing.
