Pace/Milton friends, this is great!
We have some exciting news to share!! FRIDAYS are now learning opportunities for our future vet's and science enthusiast!!
🐾🩺 WHAT WILL STUDENTS GET TO DO ON A VETERINARY FIELD TRIP? 🐴🔬
We’re so excited about our new Friday Veterinary Field Trips at Northwest Florida Animal Clinic, and we wanted to give you a peek at some of the hands-on learning stations we’re planning!
This isn’t just a tour—we want our students to EXPLORE, ASK QUESTIONS & GET HANDS-ON! ❤️
💩 THE SCOOP ON P**P!
🔬 F***l & Microscope Station
Learn why veterinarians check f***l samples, take a look through the microscope, and discover some of the tiny parasites that can cause BIG problems for our patients!
🩸 BLOOD, GUTS & GOOD MEDICINE!
Blood Draw & Bloodwork Station
Learn how blood is collected, why we use different tubes, what the different tests are for, and just how much a small sample of blood can tell us about an animal’s health.
🔬 CRACK THE CASE!
Veterinary Laboratory Station
Become a veterinary detective! See some of our laboratory machines and learn how our team uses test results to help solve the mystery of a sick patient.
❤️ VITALS ARE VITAL!
Patient Exam Station
Grab a stethoscope and learn how veterinary professionals check heart rate, breathing, temperature, weight, and other important vital signs.
🩻 WHAT’S INSIDE?🖥️ LETS A PEEK!
X-Ray & Ultrasound Station
Bones, bellies and more! See how X-rays allow our veterinary team to look inside a patient and learn what we look for when reading an X-ray. Discover how ultrasound lets us see things happening inside an animal’s body—and sometimes these tests even let us get a peek at babies before they arrive! 🐴🐄❤️
🧰 TOOLS OF THE TRADE!
Veterinary Equipment Station
Explore some of the interesting tools and equipment our veterinarians and technicians use every day. What is it? What does it do? And which animals do we use it on?
🐴🐶 BIG PATIENT, LITTLE PATIENT!
Large vs. Small Animal Medicine
What happens when your patient weighs 8 pounds…or 1,200 pounds?! 😲 Students will discover some of the differences between caring for dogs and cats and treating horses, cows, goats and pigs!
🎓 And there may be a few surprises along the way!
Our goal is to give students a fun, age-appropriate look at the REAL world of veterinary medicine and introduce them to the many opportunities available as a veterinarian, veterinary technician, assistant, or member of a veterinary healthcare team.
