Veterinary technicians play an essential role in our large animal veterinary practice, where their expertise is crucial to both animal care and the smooth operation of the clinic. They assist veterinarians with a variety of tasks such as administering medications, conducting lab tests, and assisting with surgical procedures. In large animal practices, where animals are often more challenging to handle due to their size, veterinary technicians are invaluable in ensuring the safety and comfort of both animals and their handlers. Their skills in restraint, monitoring anesthesia, and taking vital signs help ensure that animals receive the best care possible. Additionally, they often act as a point of communication between the client and the veterinarian, providing owners with information about animal health, preventive care, and post-operative instructions. Their ability to manage the day-to-day operations of the practice, coupled with their technical knowledge, makes them indispensable in maintaining the health and well-being of large animals in a busy veterinary setting.
