One to two DVM/one to two RVT volunteers needed for each
of the following COVID safe clinics this fall.
Indigenous communities have been hard hit when it comes to veterinary care because of COVID.
The Community Healthcare Partnership Program has been successful in implementing low risk contactless clinics over the summer. As they are trying to schedule their fall activities, they are looking for additional DVMs and RVTs to assist in their work. They will be doing both wellness and spay/neuter services with their team of senior students.
If you have an interest in serving these communities and teaching students, please let them know. They dedicate one of their surgical stations as high volume, so are looking for volunteers there too.
There is orientation provided, and if you have a license to practice, you can participate! Accommodations and food provided.
