Night Nurses

Ljilja

My job at Granville Island Veterinary Hospital is to make sure that animals staying overnight get the best care possible, hugs and kisses included! I have been doing this since 2005. As a reward I get lots of wagging tails, grateful eyes and the opportunity to be a part of a great and caring GIVH team. Originally from Bosnia and Herzegowina, I settled down in Vancouver in 1998. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree majoring in German language and literature. In the past I have volunteered by helping people in need and now my goal is to join Donna's team (The Canadian Animal Assistance Team) and help animals in need.

Tara

Tara started as a ward nurse here in 1991, making her one of our most long term team members.  Tara provides loving care for all the patients that are lucky enough to meet her overnight.  She is also a well known voice on the phone for many of our clients, fielding emergency phone calls expertly.  Our doctors all pay very close attention to Tara's overnight observations in patients files, as her detailed care is often the difference in a critical patient's outcome.  In her time away from the hospital, Tara takes care of Mr Jones, a special kitty with special needs.
