As a lead veterinary technician with Mobile Veterinary CT, I operate a mobile helical CT machine and acquire high-quality images of veterinary patients. I monitor and adjust the machine settings to ensure accurate and efficient scans, and maintain the equipment to ensure optimal performance and safety standards are met. I collaborate with veterinary staff to determine the appropriate imaging protocol for each patient and provide high-quality images for veterinary diagnosis. I maintain detailed records of scans, patient data, and other relevant information, and ensure compliance with all safety procedures and regulations. Additionally, I troubleshoot and resolve any technical issues with the machine, and am responsible for ordering medications and supplies, creating medical protocols, and maintaining a high level of organization and efficiency in the field.

I provide exceptional care to emergent and critical patients in a fast-paced, high-stress environment. I administer medications, provide nursing care, take radiographs, and perform venipuncture on both small and exotic patients. I monitor anesthesia and vital signs to ensure patient safety during surgeries and procedures, and triage incoming patients to assess urgency and provide appropriate interventions. I maintain detailed medical records and collaborate effectively with veterinarians, technicians, and support staff to provide optimal patient care and client education. Adapted quickly to various hospital protocols and equipment to provide seamless care for patients.

I worked as an Emergency Veterinary Technician for a total of 4 years. I started as a full-time employee in January of 2019 and worked there until October of 2021, providing emergency veterinary care to small animals. I then returned to the hospital in January of 2022 as a relief veterinary technician, continuing to triage patients, run anesthesia, administer medications, and perform other nursing care for critical and hospitalized animals.
