Certified Veterinary Technicians (Veterinary Nurses)

What is a veterinary technician?  In New Hampshire, anyone can be called a veterinary technician or "vet tech."  SNVH requires that OUR nurses caring for your pets are credentialed veterinary technicians, which means they hold a college degree and have passed a national exam.  Learn more about veterinary technicians at NAVTA.net.
