VCA Apex Animal Hospital, NC

Description of Elective Experience

The student will experience our hospital flow, surgery, laboratory functions, preventative medicine, room appointments, technician and assistant duties as they support DVMs and some emergencies.

Institutional and Educational Resources - staffing, equipment, etc.

VCA offers a multitude of onboarding and continuing training modules.  We also have strong support within the hospital and with field leadership.

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

We will schedule the student between 36-40 hours per week.  This schedule may include some evening hours.  As the student becomes acclimated to our hospital and team, we will transition from shadowing to support for our DVMs.
