Job Description

About the Internship

Join our high-volume Emergency and Critical Care Department, where we handle over 10,000 cases annually. This immersive 12-month internship is your gateway to mastering emergency and critical care, providing you with unparalleled clinical exposure, structured mentorship, and continuous education. Under the expert guidance of Dr. Christine Lovatt DACVECC and our team of 6 seasoned MANZCVS veterinarians, you will thrive in an environment committed to the highest standards of patient care.

This internship program is an exciting opportunity to immerse yourself in an intensely rewarding and fast paced discipline.  It is focused on the provision of clinical exposure, structured mentorship and continuing education to engender confidence, develop clinical competence and serve as an introduction to the academic aspects of emergency and critical care.  Beyond this, the role has the potential to open up further opportunities for career progression within the discipline. 

The program has a fixed term of 12-months and is full-time. The majority of the year would be spent within the Emergency Department, but there would also be short rotations through other specialist departments.  
 

Why Choose our ECC Internship?

The internship incorporates a range of benefits, which are included to capitalise on learning opportunities and optimise the value of the program for the intern, including:

  • Early active participation in the ECC environment without the immediate pressure of primary case responsibility and a progressive transition to case responsibility based on readiness, and with the support and guidance of assigned mentors.  Accordingly, all shifts will be rostered alongside another experienced ECC clinician – no sole charge is required at any time point during internship.
  • Active involvement in daily ECC rounds and attendance at regular ECC tutorials
  • Rotation through other departments of the hospital, specifically surgery and internal medicine, to further develop the intern’s knowledge and skills in these areas. Additionally, there is access to, and considerable opportunity for, interaction with specialists in all departments on a daily basis.  Beyond the obvious benefits, this also often allows for the follow-up of cases beyond the direct involvement of the Emergency Department.
  • Mentorship by senior veterinarians, including multiple MANZCVS veterinarians and direct supervision and guidance from our DACVECC, Dr Christine Lovatt. 
  • Encouragement, support and provision for preparation for Membership examinations of the Australian and New Zealand College (if eligible) or other post-graduate training opportunities – we have had 4 veterinarians pass membership exams in the last 2 years
  • Consistent exposure to a large, diverse caseload supports familiarity with common presentations and ensures early application of knowledge.
  • Professional and social interaction with the intern group within the hospital
  • Competitive remuneration including 5 weeks of annual leave and 1 week of study leave for conference or externship attendance.
  • Access to Greencross employee benefits, including National Symposium, other internal CE opportunities, vet registration payment, a CE allowance and RECOVER certification.
