Full Job Description

Veterinary Intern

Austin Pets Alive! (APA!) is one of Austin’s most dynamic and best-loved nonprofits. The organization is the leader in the no kill movement nationally and is considered a national thought leader in animal welfare. APA! locally rescues, treats, and adopts out 10,000 homeless dogs and cats each year, providing the safety net for Austin’s most at-risk shelter pets, which helps Austin to be a no-kill city, while also assisting other communities in saving homeless animals. The organization is distinguished by the scrappiness of its grassroots, non-traditional community-based animal rescue work.

The organization continues to innovate best practices to save lives and teaches its renowned lifesaving model through American Pets Alive!, APA!’s national division. In 2020, AmPA! began the Human Animal Support Services (HASS) project, a collaborative movement of more than 10,000 animal welfare professionals working in nearly 1,900 organizations. HASS is the first-of-its-kind collective of shelters and animal welfare professionals coming together to build community-focused animal services that better meet the needs of people and pets by keeping human-animal families together and keeping pets unnecessarily out of shelters.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS: The Veterinary Internship consists of one year working under the mentorship of multiple Associate Veterinarians. Candidates would get excellent hands-on experience in challenging medical cases and various types of surgeries. APA! performs surgeries each day ranging from routine high quality/high volume spay/neuter, routine soft tissue surgeries, emergency surgeries, to onsite orthopedic surgery with a board specialist. The internship position will work closely with technicians and support staff/volunteers in providing the most effective medical care to our rescue animals. This position will receive training in veterinary life-saving techniques on the basis of low-cost treatment and quick yet efficient exams with the goal of providing quality of life and finding forever homes. Thus maximizing the number of lives saved by providing quality medical care in a cost and time-effective manner. The Veterinary Intern would also research cases and present cases weekly during weekly round sessions.

QUALIFICATIONS, SKILLS, & EXPECTATIONS:

License to practice veterinary medicine in Texas
High interest in learning how to save as many lives as possible and be comfortable with triage, using systems and protocols, as well as a high volume medical caseload
Excited by the challenge of making decisions based on physical examination/carefully chosen diagnostics/history without all the bells and whistles of a full lab/referral hospitals
Must embody APA!'s core values of innovation, respect, drive, resourcefulness, and inclusion
Commitment to APA!'s customer experience expectations
Willing and committed to working well with volunteers and staff in all roles

SALARY: $80,000

TIME COMMITMENT: This is a full-time, exempt position, for a period of one year. Scheduling would need to be flexible as work weeks would be 5 days a week, consisting of 8-12 hour days depending on the number of patients seen each day. The Veterinary Intern will also be on call every other week, initially under the mentorship of senior veterinarians.
