VCA Animal Emergency Critical Care in Leesburg, V A is looking for a CVT who's ready to do real work and not just watch from the sidelines. If you've got the skills, we've got the cases and the trust to let you run with them.
This is emergency and critical care medicine. It's fast-paced, hands-on, and never boring. You'll be doing everything: patient care, anesthesia, advanced procedures, diagnostics, and the whole toolkit. Daytime and Swing shifts, working alongside a team that's genuinely good at this and genuinely wants you to get better at it too.
What you'll actually be doing:
Providing Critical Care medicine that goes hand-in-hand with specialty medicine, to provide the best outcome for the patients
Physical exams, patient histories, vitals — the foundation of good care
Medications, CRIs, transfusions, and treatments, dosed right and documented right
IV catheters, venipuncture, fluid therapy, high flow oxygen
Anesthesia inducing, monitoring, and keeping patients stable through procedures
Radiography and in-house diagnostics
Client education — real conversations about at home care, nutrition, and discharge instructions
Accurate records and clear communication with the team
Handling a huge range of cases, from routine to "okay, this one's a lot"
Who we're looking for: Someone positive, driven, and not afraid to speak up. We have real conversations as a team, and your ideas actually go somewhere. We're picky about who we bring on. We want people who can roll with chaos, wear a few hats, and show up for the people next to them.
Compensation : $35.00 - $37.00 / hr based on skill set, experience and licensure status.
Schedule: Full time, swing and daytime shifts
