Animal Medical Clinic Internship

Decent Essays
I am contacting you to apply for the internship at the Animal Medical Clinic as a kennel assistant. I am a student at Berry College with the intent to major in animal science on a pre-veterinarian concentration. I saw an ad in the newspaper that this opportunity was available and I knew that I was perfect for this position. I can not wait to expand my knowledge in an actual practice. I have large amounts of animal handling practice of both large and small, because I have a job at the Berry Dairy as well as working at a clinic prior. My communication skills are one of my strengths that I also have to offer, even if it is used minimal in this position. I understand many of the numerous tasks necessary on a daily basis and I am very adaptable

    Veterinary Professional Practice PART A: Communication and Consultation Skills Consultations tended to be initiated with a friendly, semi- casual greeting. This allowed clients to feel at ease with the veterinarian, as it would come across as less intimidating for them than being addressed in an overly rigid, formal manner. It is a way to establish a rapport with the client early on, and indicates that the consultation has a more relationship focused nature as opposed to a slightly condescending paternalistic approach. This demonstrates to the clients from the beginning that they will be respected and their concerns heard (R. Shaw, 2006).…
