At i-Care Veterinary Hospital in Coombs, BC, we know that it takes more than doctors to provide the best care for our beloved pets. This National Veterinary Technician Week, we are thrilled to shine a spotlight on the unsung heroes of our team—our talented, compassionate, and hardworking veterinary technicians. 🩺🐾

What Do Vet Techs Do?

Vet techs are the backbone of every veterinary clinic, and their roles go far beyond what most people see during an appointment. Whether they’re monitoring a patient under anesthesia, assisting in surgery, drawing blood for lab tests, or comforting a scared pet, our vet techs do it all. Here are just a few of the hats they wear:

  • Nurses for Animals: Administering medication, vaccinations, and post-operative care.
  • Lab Technicians: Performing blood work, urinalysis, and other diagnostic tests.
  • Anesthesia Monitors: Keeping pets safe during surgical procedures.
  • Pet Advocates: Providing education and comfort to pet owners.
  • Caregivers: Offering love, attention, and cuddles to pets in need.

Every day, they juggle these responsibilities with grace, patience, and professionalism—all while making sure every animal feels cared for and every pet parent feels supported.


The Heart of i-Care Veterinary Hospital

At i-Care, our vet techs are central to every patient’s journey—from the first exam to the final tail wag. They ensure our patients get the best care, and they go above and beyond to make our clinic feel like a safe, welcoming place for pets and people alike.
