What else can I do with my veterinary degree?

Veterinary degrees open opportunities beyond clinical practice, including roles in research, public health, animal welfare organizations, pharmaceutical companies, and education. Graduates can also pursue specialized certifications in areas like exotic animals, dentistry, or surgery, and work in regulatory agencies or policy development. Skills in communication, diagnostics, and animal care are valuable across these fields.

What are some common challenges faced by Veterinary Interns during their rotations, and how can these be managed?

Veterinary Interns often encounter challenges such as managing a high caseload, adapting to a fast-paced clinical environment, and balancing hands-on patient care with administrative tasks. It's common to feel overwhelmed at first, but strong organizational skills and open communication with supervising veterinarians can help. Seeking feedback regularly and participating in team discussions also foster learning and professional growth, making it easier to navigate the demands of the internship.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Veterinary Intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Veterinary Intern, you need a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree, foundational clinical skills, and a strong understanding of animal physiology and pathology. Familiarity with veterinary practice management software, diagnostic tools, and laboratory equipment is commonly required. Strong communication, attention to detail, and a compassionate approach are important soft skills for effectively supporting patients and collaborating with veterinary teams. These competencies ensure high-quality animal care, efficient practice operations, and successful integration into veterinary practice environments.

What are Veterinary Interns?

Veterinary Interns are recent veterinary school graduates who participate in a one-year, supervised training program to gain practical experience in various aspects of veterinary medicine. During their internship, they work under the guidance of experienced veterinarians, rotating through different specialties such as surgery, internal medicine, and emergency care. This hands-on training helps interns improve their clinical skills, make informed career decisions, and prepare for more advanced positions like residencies or specialized practice.

Job description

Description:

Are you a dedicated Veterinary Technician with a passion for Emergency Care?

Join our dynamic team at Pieper Veterinary in Middletown, CT, where every day presents the chance to make a real difference in the lives of pets and their families. We are looking for skilled professionals who thrive in fast-paced environments and are committed to providing exceptional care during critical moments.

Our vision is a simple one, to make the community and the animals and people in it happier and healthier. If those values mean something to you, we invite you to check us out.

What to Expect:

  • Commitment to Continuing Education: We want to retain and develop our talent to the best of our ability. You can expect numerous in-house CE opportunities, and any mentoring available to support and achieve your VTS goals.
  • Career Advancement: We pride ourselves on recognizing top talent and strong work ethic and if you demonstrate those things, you can expect to be promoted from within.
  • Environment of Belonging: With so many specialties at your fingertips, it's easy to find where you fit. We also promote an environment of inclusivity so that everyone feels welcome.
  • Environment of Collaboration: Our VECCS Level 1 Certified Hospital includes specialists in Emergency & Critical Care, Neurology, Internal Medicine, Radiology, Oncology, Surgery, and Exotics and a full staff of experienced Emergency and Primary Care Veterinarians. With the support of their technicians, assistants, and liaisons the hospital teams work closely together to deliver the highest quality of care.

About You:
We strongly believe that veterinary medicine is a team sport, and our ideal candidate is someone who feels the same. Communication is key in a clinical setting, and we are looking for those multitaskers that can manage that as well as maintain a high standard of care for their patients.

We are seeking a technician who is already confident with triaging patients, restraint, venipuncture, IV catheter placement, able to administer IV, SQ, IM injections, sedation, and anesthesia. The ideal candidate must be comfortable with speaking with clients as this role entails reviewing discharge instructions including any medications being sent home and instructions for home care.

Experience with CPR, EzyVet, and Smartflow are an additional plus, but not required. We highly value collaboration from all staff members, so please speak up as your input is not only valued but can make a difference.

Anticipated Schedule:
This is a full-time position:
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday: 8pm-6am
Holidays are required.

Compensation:
Starting at $22.00-$30.00/hour dependent upon experience plus overnight shift differential.

What's in it for you?

  • Supportive culture with social events & team building
  • Competitive paid time off & holidays
  • Career Growth & Training Opportunities
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Mental Health Focused Services
  • 401(k) plan with strong employer match
  • Up to 75% employee pet care discount
  • Annual uniform allowance
  • Team Building

We know it's not always easy to make a move. We treat all interviews as confidential and if a casual chat is more your style, we can do that too! We genuinely love what we do and the people we work with!

Requirements:
  • Associates degree in Veterinary Technology is a plus.
  • CVT license is a plus.
  • Knowledge with sedation, anesthesia and monitoring.
  • Phlebotomy
  • Knowledge of the procedures used for scheduling patients, receiving, treating, ordering medical supplies, and requesting laboratory tests.
  • Knowledge of the use, care, and storage of veterinary instruments, materials, and equipment.
  • Knowledge of sterilization techniques to sterilize various instruments and materials.
  • Knowledge of the instruments, materials, and standardized procedures used in the full variety of treatments to make preparations and provide “tableside” assistance.
  • Knowledge of principles and processes for providing client and personal services. This includes client needs assessment, meeting quality standards for services, and evaluation of client satisfaction.
  • Knowledge of the structure and content of the English language including the meaning and spelling of words, rules of composition, and grammar.
  • Ability to work independently on assigned tasks as well as to accept direction on given assignments.
  • Must be 18 years or older to apply.
