Vet Nurse Volunteer China


Vet Nurse Volunteer China

Animals Asia can only accept applications from volunteers trained in either veterinary science / vet nursing or qualified in wild-animal management (volunteers will also be considered who have a lot of experience working in the veterinary profession), as all hands on work with the bears necessitates intensive training.
All veterinary volunteer placements require a commitment of at least three months.

Basic Veterinary Nurse Volunteer Requirements
•        Recognised veterinary nursing qualification.
•        Experience working in veterinary practice in a veterinary nursing role.

Main Duties
•        Make medicated shakes for bears.
•        Walk and feed local dogs daily.
•        Assist with weekly and monthly cleaning duties.
•        Assist with the preparation for bear health-checks and surgeries.
•        Assist with bear health-checks and surgeries when required.
•        Help clear away after bear health-checks and surgeries.
•        Observe and monitor bears waking up from anaesthetics.
•        Feed, clean and enrich hospitalised bears in transport cages.
•        Help with small animal work as needed.
•        Assist the Resident VN with monthly abdomen checks and worming of bears as required.
