This week, October 13-19th, is National Veterinary Technician Appreciation week. While we always appreciate what our veterinary technicians (and our entire staff) do, we wanted to take the time to spotlight what a veterinary technician is. This way, the public can appreciate what they do as well! We at Wareham Animal Hospital are proud to say that all of our veterinary technicians have been certified through the state of Massachusetts. A Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) is someone who has gone through formal education and extensive training to become certified through their state of practice. They keep up this certification by completing continuing education in veterinary medicine every year. Veterinary technicians do a lot more than snuggle your beloved pets! They perform diagnostics, such as radiographs and blood-work, administer medications and life-saving treatments, safely anesthetize pets during surgery, and so much more! Please join us in celebrating our dedicated Veterinary Technicians! left to right: Gabby, CVT, Li, CVT, Amber, CVT, VTS(ECC), Caitlin, CVT
