American College of Veterinary Emergency Critical Care (ACVECC)

American College of Veterinary Emergency Critical Care (ACVECC) ACVECC is a group of veterinary specialists who have undergone specialized training in the field of emergency and critical care.

There are only about 1000 of us in the world! A specialist in emergency and critical care is a specially trained veterinarian who is dedicated to treating life-threatening conditions. Yes, they do have additional training! They must first be a graduate of a recognized veterinary school, then receive a minimum (or equivalent) of 3 additional years of intense training in emergency, surgery and critical care through completion of an American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care (ACVECC)-approved training program. This intense program is referred to as a “residency” in emergency and critical care and focuses on the most up-to-date techniques for diagnosis and treatment of life-threatening disease processes in an emergency, and for the critical time while the animal is recovering. The emergency and critical care residency is supervised by mentors who have been through similar training programs and are themselves board-certified Diplomates of the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care (DACVECC). Once the veterinarian has completed these years of specialty residency training, the individual must then pass a tough board -certification examination given by the ACVECC. Upon successful completion of the training and passing of the examination, the veterinarian is a Diplomate of the ACVECC, is termed a “specialist”, and is board-certified in veterinary emergency and critical care.

In most fire reports, pets don’t count as victims at all. A firefighter and his brother want to change how the system sees them — and saves them.

Cat Herders Day is one of our favorite days of the year because tasks that may seem impossible (like, say, herding cats) are considered routine in the veterinary profession. Some days, the job of a veterinary professional really does feel like herding cats, both figuratively and literally, but we love our work anyway! 😾👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️
