Intern in Veterinary Medicine in Romania
Romania joined the European Union in early 2007 and is one of its poorest members. As a veterinary volunteer in Romania, you will provide an extra pair of hands: volunteers are privileged to be in a position where they can learn vast amounts from qualified vets. Whether you are a pre-university student considering a career in veterinary medicine, an undergraduate or a graduate, working as a veterinary volunteer you could get involved in vaccinations, operations, laboratory work, post-mortems, inspections and the routine treatment of pets.
Based either in a busy veterinary practice or in a dog’s shelter in the city of Brasov, the English-speaking vets will be able to share their knowledge with you. By showing initiative and willingness to get involved, you will be able to enhance this process and gain some truly valuable international work experience. This will ultimately increase your prospects within this highly competitive field.
Volunteer and Intern with Animals in Romania
Volunteers working at the veterinary practice assist in treating a range of different animals. The mornings are usually reserved for general surgery where locals bring their pets. During these times, you will learn how to handle animals and reassure their owners as well as observe how a diagnosis takes place and inoculations are given. At the dog’s shelter, volunteers also assist with surgery and can help with the general care and feeding of animals. The vets here need a lot of help with looking after the animals.
These volunteer veterinary internships will give you a unique insight into veterinary practice both in Romania and in general. The vets are eager to get you as involved as possible and will enjoy teaching you about the veterinary practice in their country.
Veterinary Volunteers and Interns in Romania
My placement here is at a dog shelter. This shelter has 800 dogs living there. Every dog is different and they each have their own unique story. It fascinated me and I fell in love with the place almost immediately. Every day there is something new for me to do. There are two Veterinarian doctors at the shelter. They are young but they are very skilled in what they do. I have the greatest opportunity almost everyday to assist them and help them in surgeries of many different kinds. The doctors are very patient with me and they want for me to learn. The shelter also receives calls to pick up injured or abandoned dogs and cats.Trina Sanderson – Veterinary Volunteer in Romania
