Searsport Veterinary Hospital, ME

Description of Elective Experience

Student will observe surgeries and assist during medical exams. General assistance, ie, patient restraint, blood draws, catheter placement, lab work, etc. will be expected. Discussion of medical cases and daily experience will add to the student's education.

Student Responsibilities - what is expected of students in terms of hours, days of the week, shadowing or actual support?

Student will be available daily for 8 hours, Monday through Friday. She will primarily shadow, but, knowing her capabilities, I expect her to be actively involved in patient care, lab tests, and, if possible, hands-on procedures.
