Small Animal Emergency Clinical Experience

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2022-2023.

Management of both emergent and critical cases represents a significant component of the practice of veterinary medicine. The focus of this course will be the initial development of a knowledge base and skill set necessary for a veterinarian to perform adequately in these areas, within a structured format. These skills will include the appropriate evaluation (triage) and stabilization of emergency patients, the management of postoperative and other critical patients, and sensitive and effective client communication. Participants will work closely with 4th year students, interns, residents, technicians and faculty on the Emergency & Critical Care Service to become familiar with technical and nursing procedures as well as to develop clinical skills and a systematic approach to clinical cases.

When Offered Winter, Summer.

Permission Note Enrollment limited to: second- and third-year veterinary students.
