Veterinary Technicians at Adamson Veterinary Services

I want to hire happy, team oriented part-time or full-time Registered Veterinary Technicians (RVTs) and experienced Veterinary Assistants (VA) for our After-Hours Urgent Care Center.  I hire staff for their brains and skills; are you that person that wants to work in a practice that values their knowledge?  Do you want to work in an environment where people are friends and help each other?  I believe in teams of happy people; are you that person?  If you are someone looking to expand your knowledge, skills, and work in a friendly, team-oriented environment, please apply, you won't regret it.  If you are looking for a structured, micromanaged environment, then we probably aren't for you.  I want people who can think, multi-task, and work independently using medical records and doctor's orders.

We are a rapidly growing practice and need RVTs and VA with the desire to improve and share their skills and knowledge.  New or experienced RVTs and/or experienced VAs are welcomed. These positions are true nursing position and NOT a kennel position.  I am happy to mentor and/or teach skills that are needed.  I believe in using my staff for their skills and brains and are willing to work in a team environment.  I appreciate my staff and encourage them to grow and learn new skills and provide the means for them to do that through Conferences, AAHA, VetGirl and eDove.  I want people that want to use the skills they worked so hard to learn to provide top notch medicine, not someone to "just hold animals and clean kennels" while I do all the technician work.  

We need quality people that can insert themselves into our team as if they have always been there, helping the pets, doctors, team members and promoting a teamwork environment.   

Individuals should have strong teamwork and communication skills.  Have the ability to manage patients with a variety of problems, perform radiographs, run labs, draw blood, place IV catheters, manage in-patient care (if needed), manage out-patient care, run exam rooms, be able to work as a team in busy work environment; follow written and verbal directions, able to multi-task and use a computer, fill medications and be able to discuss them with clients, monitor patients under anesthesia, recover animals post-op, and be able to perform tasks based on doctor's notes.  The ability to educate clients is a big plus as I expect staff to educate as well as the veterinarian.

Should have flexibility for schedules.  The After Hour Urgent Care Center is open Friday night through Tuesday night from 4pm to 10pm with an occasional overage.  I am looking for someone to work all or some of these days.  Friday and Sunday are the critical days to fill.  

 We offer great benefits and competitive salaries.  The salary is based on experience and position. Additional information will be provided at the interview.  Contact Yvonne Conner, the Urgent Care Center practice manager.  She is available through our general practice (Adamson Veterinary Services) from 9 am to 4 pm Monday through Friday.  You can also contact her through iHire.
