Job description:
**We highly recommend you include a cover letter sharing your experience and/or interest in the veterinary field with your resume to set you apart from other applicants.
We are looking for highly motivated individuals to join our veterinary technician staff. We are a busy, privately owned, multi-doctor practice in New Braunfels, Texas specializing in small animal medicine.
We see roughly 80 patients a day for everything from wellness exams, elective and advanced surgery, urgent care, senior care, hospice, and internal medicine cases so no two days are the same.
The ability to work well under high pressure and multi-task is a must. A strong work ethic is the basis for a career in veterinary medicine and our technicians must be equipped to speak respectfully to our clients, fellow employees and veterinarians they work hand in hand with. Must be able to take constructive criticism well and gracefully take direction from others.
Some daily duties include but are not limited to:
- Triaging and collecting intake information for patient cases
- Assisting doctors during exam, treatments and surgery
- Administering vaccinations and other procedures under doctor supervision
- Drawing and processing labwork
- Assisting with digital x-rays and ultrasounds
- Speaking to the clients in room and post exam
- Returning client calls and recommending the next course of action per doctors instructions
- Accurately document patient records in the medical system
- Monitor hospitalized patients and report changes to the veterinarian
- Monitor post surgical recovery on patients
- Provide nursing care including feeding, walking, cleaning, and comfort measures
- Maintain accurate treatment sheets and medication logs
The veterinary field is deeply rewarding with room for further education and growth. Experience is preferred but we are willing to train the right person. A competitive hourly wage is based on experience.
If hard work doesn't scare you and laughing to get through the days with good people and entertaining, lovable pets seems like something you'd enjoy, please upload a cover letter sharing your experience and/or interest in the veterinary field with your resume to set you apart from other applicants.
