Jenna RVT and Chloe
In honor of National Veterinary Technician Week, I interviewed Jenna Stregowski, RVT, a vet tech and fellow About.com Guide to Dogs for her perspective on veterinary technician careers.
See what Jenna has to say about…
- When did you become a vet tech, and how has the profession changed since then?
- How did you become an RVT – school, online, or on-the-job training?
- Do you prefer being called a vet tech or vet nurse? Does it matter to others in the career?
- You have worked in a variety of clinical settings. What is your favorite part of the vet tech job?
- What are the differences in career outlook and salary potential for specialized care (emergency, referral, large animal)?
- What is your advice to someone considering veterinary nursing as a career and worried about income earning potential?
