EMS placements are open to veterinary students in their final two years of study and we welcome enthusiastic, hard working, focused individuals to apply.
Become a member of our team and put your knowledge and skills into practice. In return you will gain valuable experience and insight into real life in-practice.
During your placement you will have support from our extensive veterinary team and the opportunity to observe and be involved in as many practical aspects of veterinary care as possible:
- Animal handling
- Physical examinations
- Blood sampling and testing
- IV catheter placement
- Diagnostic imaging
- Anaesthetic monitoring
- Witnessing and scrubbing into surgical procedures
- Working up new and existing cases
- In-patient care
- Communication with clients and the wider veterinary team
For guidance during your placement, you will be provided with a skills list to complete helping you get the most out of your time with us.
EMS placements are a minimum of 1 week, but can be up to 4 weeks. Hours are between 8am – 6pm, Monday – Friday with an evening on call each week to experience our emergency out of hours cases. This leaves your weekends free to explore some of the sites the city and surrounding area is renowned for.
Accommodation which is fully furnished, a company car and your lunch are provided free for the duration of your stay.
Successful EMS placement students that have demonstrated their commitment to providing exceptional veterinary care, and a keen interest in working with us in the future, may be offered the opportunity to join our list for our New Graduate Programme. The directors will choose candidate/s from the short-list to join our New graduate programme following successful graduation.
