Padonia Veterinary HospitalOffice Manager and Veterinary Assistant
Jan. 1985 - May. 2005United States, CockeysvilleOffice manager and veterinary assistant to a small animal veterinary hospital. I was responsible for cultivating trust for an our clientele. My specialty was counseling pet owners whose pets were being treated for a terminal condition. This required knowledge of medical conditions, and their prognosis in order to assist pet owners to evaluate the quality of life as their pets were approaching end of life. In order to take on this role I was educated in the medical conditions, diagnostics and prognosis’s of a diverse range of breeds. The complexity of the relationship between pet owners and their pets at this stage of life led to me working with people in palliative care hospice.
In addition to client relations, I handled the sales and inventory of all medical services and products at our hospital.
