· Job description

· Veterinary Assistant

National Veterinary Associates aspire to be a practice where as a team, we make a positive impact on pet health care in hospitals, communities, and the field of veterinary medicine. And, we believe hiring people with diverse perspectives, ideas, and cultures, permits us to deliver to the highest quality of preventive care.

As a NVA veterinary assistant, you will work alongside pet health care industry experts to make a difference in the lives of the pets and clients we serve. With the chance to utilize your veterinary knowledge, communication skills, and love for pets, this role will afford you the opportunity to define a clear career path for continued growth and learning.

o Use safe restraining techniques, follow standard protocols, and sustain clean, sterile, organized treatment areas, exam rooms, and labs.

o Be willing to guide, mentor, and support fellow team members.

Commitment Beyond Qualifications

Being a veterinary assistant requires much more than AVMA certified credentials. It means bringing your talents, skills, dedication, and a desire for developing alongside your peers. But, most importantly, it means showing up each day with a passion for pets and working with others who believe preventive care is the key to helping pets achieve long and healthy lives.

While your on-paper qualifications are of course important, we actively seek out vet assistnats who thrive on delivering outstanding client and pet experiences.

Your wellbeing matters.

We know that your real passion for pet well-being is why you chose this profession. At NVA, we believe it is just as important to support the well-being of those who devote their lives to this cause. Through our extensive network and support structure, NVA offers a wide array of benefits and programs for our full time employees, empowering you to focus on yourself and your family, as you care for pets and clients
