Nikki Hayward

Senior Emergency & Critical Care Nurse

After qualifying (many moons ago) Nikki worked in a small animal practice in the south east. In 1999, she joined a well known veterinary hospital as a Medicine Nurse where she gained her Diploma in Advanced Nursing Medicine (Dip AVN (Med) in 2005. After, Nikki returned to general practice but soon realised that her passion for emergency medicine was too strong and the lure of this prevailed.

In 2010, Nikki became an active part of the ECC night team at the veterinary hospital and gained her Cert VN ECC in 2015. With night work growing tiresome, Nikki decided to go back to working days and joined us at The Ralph as a part of our expanding  ECC team in 2021.

When not at work, Nikki enjoys spending time with her husband, 2 children and their very active cats Dobby, Loki & Trixie and new puppy, Roxy.
