Externship Spotlight - Lucy Jones - 03DV25

Throughout her time at Vet Tech Institute of Indiana, Lucy Jones has been a student who consistently goes above and beyond. A 4.0 student, Lucy has served as both a peer tutor and a Federal Work-Study employee, helping fellow students in the tutoring center while also gaining valuable hands-on experience at Indianapolis Animal Care Services (IACS). Along the way, she was recognized as Student of the Week after being nominated by three different instructors for her exceptional work ethic, positive attitude, and willingness to help wherever she was needed.

Her instructors praised her for always jumping in to assist during hands-on labs, helping with kennel duties and intake exams, and regularly asking if there was anything else she could do. One instructor simply summed her up by saying, "Love her and her sweet attitude."

Now, Lucy is carrying that same enthusiasm into externship. Externship has been an incredible experience for Lucy Jones, and she's soaking up every opportunity to learn.
"Externship has been going amazing so far. I've seen so many things, and I'm absolutely loving it."

One of the most rewarding moments she's experienced was watching a dog regain the ability to walk after losing motor function. "The coolest thing so far was seeing a dog who had no motor function finally start using her legs on her own again!"

Lucy has also had the unique opportunity to follow a patient through every stage of recovery from a TPLO (Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy) procedure. "I've learned how the rehabilitation process works because I've seen the surgical aspect of a TPLO, the inpatient recovery, and now the rehabilitation side. It's been really neat to see all aspects of recovery come together."

Lucy has already made an incredible impact at VTI through her leadership, kindness, and dedication to helping others. It's exciting to see her continue to grow during externship, and we can't wait to see where her passion for veterinary medicine takes her next.

Tiny but mighty! Mrs. Stout teaches Microbiology, where 11DV25 students are learning about the microscopic organisms that play a huge role in animal health.
Fun fact: There are more bacterial cells living in and on your body than there are people on Earth!

Our 07DV25 students spent time in the horse barn building essential equine handling and assessment skills! They practiced equine physical exams, haltering and leading, hoof picking, using hoof testers, and taking accurate weight and height measurements. Every hands-on experience brings them one step closer to becoming confident veterinary technicians.

Roommates, classmates, and zoo adventures! 11DV25 students Macyn Patton, Adrianna Shadday, Alyssa Sutton, Allison Kunze, and 03DV26 student Addison Veith take a break to capture the moment during their visit to the Australia exhibit.

Our 07DV25 students had the chance to put their skills into practice during physical exams at the sheep farm. They performed venipuncture, focused on medication administration techniques, including IV injections, IM injections, and administering oral medications with a balling gun, all while gaining valuable large animal experience. Great work, future vet techs!

Did You Know?
Sheep have four stomach compartments, allowing them to efficiently digest tough grasses and hay through a process called rumination (chewing their cud).
A sheep's jugular vein is the most common site for venipuncture, making it an essential skill for veterinary technicians to master for blood collection and medication administration.

Balling guns are commonly used to safely administer large tablets or boluses to sheep, goats, and cattle, ensuring the medication reaches the stomach without being chewed or spit out.
