October’s Healthcare After School program is partnering with Rockford Career College and will focus on veterinary care.
Students will learn about different aspects of vet tech job duties including temperatures, pulse and respiratory rates, laboratory skills, bandaging limbs and handling emergencies including CPR for animals.
We will culminate our month with a fun field trip to Rockford Career College to see their labs and where the students do all their learning.
This is a fantastic chance for hands-on experience in these exciting fields.
