Veterinary Resident Job at Cape Cod Veterinary Specialists
Cape Cod Veterinary Specialists (CCVS) is a 24-hour small animal emergency and specialty center with two available positions for our emergency and critical care residency. This is a three-year program that supports 4-6 ECC residents. Our mission is to create high-quality, board-eligible critical care doctors who practice a high standard of individualized care in private practice and use critical thought when making medical decisions. In support of this mission, the CCVS residency works continuously to advance animal health and well-being by providing educational and leadership experiences both for and by residents, performing meaningful clinical research, and practicing exceptional veterinary care. We strive to uphold our central values of a drive for excellence, trust, respect, integrity, innovation, collaboration, and compassion.
In order to maximize the quality of life of our employees, CCVS has made it a priority to pay a competitive salary for this position. We have also expanded our support staff to include doctors’ assistants for medical record support and employ a veterinary social worker for support of both our clients and employees.
This program is supported by five board-certified criticalists, two board-certified internists, six board-certified surgeons, one residency-trained surgeon, one board-certified radiologist, one board-certified cardiologist, and one board-certified anesthesiologist. There is also a board-certified cardiologist and a board-certified ophthalmologist with limited hours at our Dennis facility. We are actively recruiting for, including but not limited to, additional criticalists, an additional anesthesiologist, and an exotics specialist.
CCVS has two locations on Cape Cod, Massachusetts. The primary hospital is located at the gateway to Cape Cod in Buzzards Bay, MA and is open 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. The second hospital is mid-Cape in South Dennis, MA, is currently open for emergencies on weekends (including overnights), and has a growing specialty presence. Interns, associate veterinarians, and criticalists work shifts at both locations. In specific situations, residents may also work at both locations including during their independent practice weeks, as additional per diem shifts, and for emergency surgery training.
Our facilities offer a wide variety of diagnostic and therapeutic equipment, including anesthetic and ICU ventilators, a transport ventilator, oxygen cages, pulse oximetry, capnography, digital radiography, a GE multi-slice helical CT scanner, endoscopy, ultrasound capability (ER and specialty), continuous and 6-lead ECG, and direct and indirect blood pressure monitoring. There is also an in-house laboratory at each facility with CBC, chemistry, blood gas, electrolyte, lactate, and coagulation testing capabilities (PT, aPTT, and viscoelastic coagulation monitoring). We maintain a blood bank and have parenteral nutrition formulation and administration capabilities.
This residency program is designed to give residents a strong clinical background in a private practice environment, while maintaining an academic atmosphere. Cage side rounds with specialists occur twice daily. Residents will experience direct supervision and guidance from the criticalists in support of the program on greater than 70% of their ECC shifts. A criticalist is also available 24/7 for phone consultation. There are in-depth, specialist-guided, weekly didactic rounds that incorporate clinical cases, physiology, and pathophysiology. There is also a separate resident-led journal club. There are dedicated ventilator on-call only weeks for the purpose of studying, performing research, or spending one on one time with critically ill pets.
An additional objective of this residency is to develop competent emergency surgeons. Residents are therefore trained in emergency surgery by 6 ACVS Diplomates. Those with a preference for surgery are given more opportunities for experience, but all residents will receive supervised training.
Our overarching goal is to successfully prepare candidates for the certifying examination. Residents are expected to spend time when not on shift studying for rounds, learning about cases, and/or working on research projects to achieve the required level of clinical acumen. Completion of the program has been shown to provide candidates with the necessary training for taking the ACVECC board certification examination, as 90% of our credentialed (board eligible) candidates are now ACVECC Diplomates.
Residents are required to prepare a first authored paper for submission in accordance with the ACVECC publishing requirement. Completion of a research project is encouraged, and recent residents have been successful in securing outside grant funding. In addition, we are in collaboration with nearby teaching hospitals and academic institutions for various research projects and training endeavors.
Residents have two weeks (10 days) of vacation and one week of paid CE per year, up to $2750.
We strongly encourage an on-site interview prior to February 16, 2024, if applying through the Match program. However, we will accept applications outside of the Match throughout the year. If an in-person interview is not possible, video or phone interviews are encouraged. Please contact Chelly Smith at michellesmith@capecodvetspecialists.com to schedule an interview.
