Intern
I safely and humanely restrain animals of all sizes for routine procedures, checks, and treatments. I also assist in ear cleanings, and nail trims. Walk and care for boarding patients or hospitalized patients. Review and document patient behavior and vital signs. In addition to this I prepare and draw up vaccines as well as other medications such as Gabapentin, or Trazadone. Help in collecting fecal analysis, drawing blood, and uranalysis. Another thing is I monitor patients under anesthesia, and recognize signs of distress and complications. Furthermore I take history about the patient and report to the veterinarian. Educate the client on preventative care, vaccines, treatments, and make sure communication between me and the client is strong. Lastly I conduct general maintenance by maintaining a clean and sterile environment. This is through disinfecting exam rooms, sweeping the clinic, cleaning kennels, mopping, and throwing out the garbage. I also stock and organize medical equipment, as well as prepare bandages, and other medical supplies as needed.
