The love and dedication I see from colleagues when looking after each and every patient is truly inspiring.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.paragonreferrals.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Paragon-nurse.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4604\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Rebecca Fray \u2013 Clinical Nursing Lead<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy role is rewarding because&nbsp;I get to help and see animal care assistants grow into confident, knowledgeable and caring veterinary nurses.

We asked the nurses to work long shifts and split to form two different teams, which meant they had to shield from friends for months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe way they did this to help protect their colleagues&nbsp;and the business made me feel extremely&nbsp;proud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI love that I am one the of people the nurses can go to for advice. My main job is to help the nurses get the most out of their career and deliver the best care possible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.paragonreferrals.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Rebecca-Fray.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4606\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>Alison Mann \u2013 Registered Veterinary Nurse<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI work with a group of exceptionally-talented vets and nurses on many difficult and interesting cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cParagon takes great care of all its staff, creating a friendly, supportive and progressive workplace.
