Your role and responsibilities

We are looking for a Vet with an interest in medicine and inpatient care to support the continuity of care for our hospitalised patients. This involves examination, making care plans and communicating with clients, as well as liaising with other vets in the team when imaging, investigative or surgical procedures are required. This role would possibly suit a recent graduate with an interest in medicine as it creates an opportunity for development with the support of more experienced colleagues. A key part of the role is also overseeing the handover of patient care to the night team. The role may also involve seeing some emergencies if required.
