Veterinary Technician Jobs in North Carolina

Veterinary technicians form a vital part of animal examinations and treatments. Our responsibility includes offering assistance to the veterinarians by holding animals securely during procedures, making sure they are safe and at ease.

We indeed prepare the animals for surgery, supervise anesthesia administration directed by a veterinarian and manage basic treatments like dressing wounds. We also routinely assist with diagnostic tests such as x-rays and ultrasounds.

Laboratory testing is a critical component of our veterinary technician duties. These responsibilities include readying specimens, executing tests, and interpreting the data to help identify health issues in animals.

For instance, we often carry out blood examinations to screen for illnesses or inspect urine samples for indications of infection.

Our hands-on lab experience enables us to operate various instruments and methods depending on the particular test required. Based on an animal’s symptoms, distinct diagnostic tests may need to be run.

Our roles require flexibility and precision at all times – from hematology labs that evaluate complete blood counts, to parasitology labs searching for intestinal parasites.

As skilled vet techs, we don’t just give medications and vaccines – we ensure they’re precisely tailored to each pet’s size, breed, and health status. Mistakes aren’t an option; every pet’s well-being depends on our careful administration of these treatments.
