Working with clinical cases
- Learn to recognise behavioural signs especially aggression in animals so that you learn to predict their behaviour
- Be aware of where to stand when working with horses and other large animals
- Always close kennel/cage/consulting room/stable doors and gates behind you
- Try to find out where equipment such as endoscopes are stored as soon as possible, so that you can find them in a hurry. Perhaps ask for a tour, or look in the cupboards during a quiet time
- Follow health and safety guidelines (these will probably be given to you on your first day; if not you should ask about them)
