City: Arvada

Hospital Name: Animal Urgent Care
Job Type: Veterinary Extern
Description & Requirements
Although every ETHOS hospital is unique, we all have some things in common: an environment that is supportive, committed to excellent medicine, and provides exceptional service to animals and the people who love them.
An externship experience at an ETHOS Emergency Hospital gives students real-life clinical experience in an emergency setting, and the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills while working alongside experienced clinicians and current mentees. Hands-on skills that may be practiced or observed include TPR’s, examinations, anesthesia, surgical procedures, catheterization, ultrasound, and other diagnostic procedures as available.
Most externship experiences range from two to eight weeks depending on student and hospital schedules. All Veterinary students (regardless of class year) are encouraged to participate in ETHOS externships, though preference may be given to students in their final year(s) of veterinary school.
An externship has no financial compensation. We do have an apartement that we offer to externs pending availability.
