Full-Time or Part-Time Considered
Employer:Â MobilityVet
Job Location (City, State, Country):Â Loveland, CO
MobilityVet, a growing mobile veterinary rehabilitation practice, is seeking an experienced Certified Veterinary Rehabilitation Technician to provide therapeutic exercise and rehabilitation appointments in clients’ homes within approximately a 30-mile radius of Loveland, CO.
Qualifications
- 3–5 years of rehabilitation-specific experience
- Current veterinary technician license
- CCAT, CCRP, CCRVN, or equivalent canine rehabilitation certification
- Valid driver’s license
- Reliable vehicle preferred; mileage reimbursement and car wash membership provided. A shared company vehicle may be considered with schedule accommodations
- Excellent exam, anatomy and palpation skills, including myofascial palpation and gait analysis with basic understanding of progression in neurologic status and post-operative complications warranting doctor oversight/intervention
- Skilled in kinesiology and animal behavior with ability to modify therapeutic exercises to target appropriate muscle groups as necessary
- Able to work independently, create, execute, and when necessary, modify a therapeutic exercise program based on the patient status at the time of appointment, with indirect veterinary oversight and guidance
- Excellent animal handling and client communication skills
- Fear Free training/certification preferred
The ideal candidate is comfortable working independently after an initial training and supervisory period, creating and modifying therapeutic exercise programs based on patient status, communicating concerns to the veterinarian, and adapting treatment to individual patient personalities and needs.
Due to the mobile nature of the position, necessary loading unloading, we do ask that the candidate is able to lift up to 50 pounds, bend, lift, work on the floor, carry equipment in and out of client homes and sit for long drives between appointments.
This position also offers the opportunity to flex between rehabilitation and other practice responsibilities, including client communication, scheduling, inventory, medical records, venipuncture, IV infusions, laboratory preparation, equipment care, creating variety and reducing some of the physical stress inherent in the animal rehabilitation field.
MobilityVet provides access to a Class IV laser, focused extracorporeal shockwave, therapeutic ultrasound, TENS/NMES, and extensive therapeutic exercise equipment. There is potential for increasing independence with rehabilitation visits as the technician and doctor develop confidence and comfort working together.
Benefits: Competitive pay, flexible scheduling, mileage reimbursement, PTO/sick time, scrubs, Breeze-Thru carwash membership, continuing education, and health insurance options for full-time employees. This is a new practice with significant opportunities to grow and help shape future roles, services, and benefits.
