Northeast Indiana Veterinary Emergency and Specialty Hospital

Fort Wayne, IN

Job Description: We are a 24-hour emergency and specialty referral hospital, serving the region of NE Indiana, SE Michigan & NW Ohio.  NIVES is an AAHA Referral accredited and a LEVEL II Certified Critical Care facility. In addition to our board certified specialists in small animal surgery, internal medicine & cardiology; we have doctors certified in canine rehabilitation therapy as well as dedicated solely to emergency & critical care. Our hospital offers extensive in-house diagnostics including hematology analyzers, digital radiography, ultrasonography, endoscopic & laparoscopic equipment and CT.

An externship experience at NIVES gives students real-life clinical experience in a multi-specialty hospital, and the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills while working alongside experienced clinicians, board-certified specialists and current interns.

Most externship experiences range from two to four weeks depending on student and hospital schedules. Veterinary students in their third and fourth years are encouraged to participate in an externship at NIVES, though preference may be given to students in their fourth year of veterinary school.  Our externs are expected to rotate though all aspects of our hospital; however, additional time can be spent in the area of most interest.

Ideal candidates are hard working, self-motivated, with a good sense of humor and ability to thrive in a fast-paced working environment 

Faith Integration: Our hospital was founded by Christian veterinarians and we maintain an environment that is positive and uplifting.

Job Details: Unpaid. Offers onsite dorm type apartment pending availability.
