One of a series of work-based interviews about occupations in Australia, this booklet presents a personal interview with a veterinary nurse about her job. The following questions are answered: what the vet nurse does, why the person chose the field of employment, how the person found the job, what she does and doesn't like about it, what kind of training was needed, what the nurse does during a working week, her co-workers, the hours, and how the work contributes to society. Cartoons are used to enliven the material, and a glossary listing 14 words is included. Although designed to be used in literacy classes with adult new readers, the booklets are also appropriate for use with elementary and secondary students in career exploration and career education.
