Below is the part of the original post that I took issue with and it was not regarding an RN giving vaccines. My issue is with the bold RED sentence.



Anyone can go to the local tractor supply and pick up a variety of vaccines to be used on their domesticated pets. But the part that is overstepping her scope as a nurse and that I take issue with is the part in RED. A vaccination record and a Veterinary Health Certificate are two totally different things. The VHC is to be signed by a Licensed Veterinarian and certified the HEALTH of a puppy.

Here is a link so that you can see what I am referring:

Health Certificate for US Pet Travel

Why is a CICU nurse stepping into the scope of practicing Veterinary Medicine. I don't care how well regarded you are on the floor of the CICU it's still practicing Veterinary Medicine without a license.

I am also taken aback by her website, where she once again uses her RN signature to promote the sale of her puppies. What does this have to do with breeding? It's a marketing ploy as far as I am concerned.

Judy Wright, RN
Owner of RoseHill Yorkies

At the very bottom of the Health Certificate that you linked to, there is a place for the owner to sign... therefore she is not "practicing Veterinary Medicine without a license" when she states that she signs her puppies' Health Certificates.
