Job Description

Your New Role

The Surgery department is currently staffed by 2 Specialist Surgeons (Fellows of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists), one surgical Registrar, a surgical Resident, and one surgical Intern, and a large team of highly skilled surgical nurses. The role encompasses assisting the surgeons with consultations, diagnostic procedures, surgical procedures, case management and patient discharges, assisting the nurses with anaesthesia, and assisting with post-operative care of patients. Interns will also be trained in performing diagnostic procedures such as radiography, CT and MRI. The commencement of the program is currently flexible, ideally prior to January 2025.

The surgery intern’s responsibilities and activities support the efficient and effective management of cases presented to the Surgery Department both as primary referrals and via the emergency service. In this role, the intern works cooperatively with, and under supervision of the surgical specialists, registrar and resident. This affords a considerable opportunity for clinical and professional development with exposure to a wide range of surgical cases and is intended to foster the intern’s interest in further learning and facilitate their progression to advanced clinical training in the discipline. This will require a balanced approach to capitalising on learning opportunities and attendance to clinical duties, requiring initiative, self-motivation and enthusiasm in both aspects of this role.

Specifically, the regular duties of the surgery intern include:

Assistance with admission of patients to, and discharge from, the hospital
Organisation and preparation for anaesthesia of surgical patients
Induction of anaesthesia and supervision of anaesthetic monitoring by surgical nurses
Providing assistance to, and guidance of, the surgical nurses in the preparation of patients for surgery and performing adjunctive analgesic procedures
Scrubbed assistance in surgery
Supervision and management of patient recovery, as monitored by the surgical nurse
Review of patient treatment/hospital charts
Brief evening rounds with the responsible ICU clinician to transfer case responsibility overnight
Assistance with diagnostic imaging investigations including radiographs, CT and MRI (external facility) examinations after appropriate training and licensing requirements have been met
Preparation of surgical reports relating to procedures that the intern has been involved in as the assistant surge
Thorough examination, assessment and care of any hospitalised surgery patients (including cooperation with the surgery nurse in performing any ancillary tasks).
Preparation of daily inpatient records for hospitalised surgery patients
Timely and comprehensive reporting to the specialists on the condition of their inpatients.
Communication with clients and referring veterinarians on behalf of the surgeons when requested.
The surgical intern is not required to contribute to the on-call roster although there is the potential for the intern to participate in rostered in-patient care on Saturday mornings.
Participation in, and contribution to, weekly surgery rounds/journal club sessions

Qualifications

Candidates must be eligible for veterinary registration in Victoria and have excellent communication skills and work ethic, as well as a strong knowledge base on which to build
Clinical experience is desirable but not essential
This position is suited to a highly motivated vet seeking to further their skills and knowledge in Small Animal Surgery
Team coherence is extremely important to us and above all, we value someone who is a team player and an active learner

MILE END, INNER W ADELAIDE, SA - SMALL ANIMAL/SPECIALIST, URGENT CARE/INTERNSHIP COMPONENT

Urgent Care+ Vet (full-time)

This is NEW role with UNIQUE components – read on if learning and career development excites you!

An exciting opportunity has opened for an Urgent Care+ Vet (full-time permanent) to join our Urgent Care team. This role comes with unique benefits (hence the +).

The role:
This new full-time role combines elements of internship, independent Vet and Urgent Care Vet. You will be doing:

Urgent Care consults and case management Mon-Fri with support/guidance of our specialist departments (e.g. neurological exam by surgery, ultrasound/CT by imaging, treatment advice from Internal Medicine)
Rotations through the specialist departments (e.g. learn to ultrasound, learn surgical skills and workup, learn medicine case management) 4-12 weeks per annum
Urgent Care on weekends and nights with on call and/or in person support

You will rotate through Urgent Care (available 24/7) as well as the various specialist departments, providing the best possible care for patients, learning best practice/specialist knowledge, and using all the equipment.

If you get excited about taking your career to the next level, enjoy the excitement of urgent care and emergency work, and want to be a part of a friendly and dynamic environment, join us!
