GQ Magazine calls Nashville "Nowville", referring to the city's strong business climate, mild weather, good schools and awesome lifestyle. There is easy access to outdoor activities like hiking and water sports, plus professional sports teams, and arguably the best music scene in the country. Yes, we have all types of music, not just country!

The Ethos ER Immerse Training Program

The ER Immerse Program will prepare veterinarians for a sustainable and satisfying career in emergency medicine. Built from the ground up to be different than traditional rotating internship programs, the ERi program has been developed around a curriculum of core competencies essential for an emergency veterinarian. In addition to providing training around clinical knowledge and skills, the program also includes a focus on client and team member communication, professional skills, and life/work integration.

The ER Immerse program utilizes a hybrid training approach incorporating simulation-based didactic components into authentic training experiences with live patients. The curriculum is designed using an evidence-based strategy identifying competencies and skills deemed essential for a successful career as an emergency clinician.
