The trend toward group practices increased client expectations of quality care, and an economic need to leverage veterinarians’ productivity, have allowed veterinary technicians to play a greater role in providing nursing care and related medical services. Veterinary Technicians can assist the veterinarian as a nurse, lab technician, radiography technician, anesthetist, surgical nurse, and client educator.
It is the mission of the RCTC Veterinary Technician Program to deliver high-quality, accessible, and affordable education to all students in order to make them successful members of the veterinary technology field.
