This week, we want to give a special shoutout to the incredible Registered Veterinary Technicians (RVTs) on our OSU-OKC Veterinary Technology faculty and staff! 🩺🐶🐱

Our RVTs do so much more than teach. They are mentors, role models, advocates, and passionate professionals who dedicate their time and expertise to preparing the next generation of veterinary technicians.

From sharing real-world clinical experiences and demonstrating essential skills to encouraging students through challenging moments, their dedication makes a lasting impact both inside and outside the classroom.

Our Veterinary Technology students had an incredible opportunity to volunteer with the Oklahoma Veterinary Medical Association (OVMA) Birthing Suite at the Oklahoma State Fair! 🎡

Students gained valuable hands-on experience caring for goats, sheep, and pigs while also helping educate fairgoers about animal care, husbandry, and the important role veterinary professionals play in animal health.

We are proud of our students for representing the Veterinary Technology Program and helping share their knowledge and passion for animal health! 🐐🐑🐖

🕷️ Hands-On Learning in Veterinary Technology! 🐾

Our Veterinary Technology students put their creativity and parasite identification skills to work during a recent tick species activity lab!

Using Play-Doh, students created models of different tick species, focusing on the physical characteristics and identifying features that help distinguish one species from another. 🔬

Who knew learning ticks could be this colorful? 🕷️🎨

💉 IV Catheter & Fluid Therapy Lab 🩺🐾

Our Veterinary Technology students have been busy building essential hands-on skills in preparation for our Clinics & Nursing spay/neuter labs this fall!

During lab, students practiced:
🐾 Aseptic preparation for IV catheter placement
💉 IV catheter placement
🩹 Proper catheter taping and securing techniques
💧 Setting up IV fluid lines
⚙️ Programming and operating IV fluid pumps

These foundational skills are an important part of preparing our students to safely and confidently care for surgical patients—from pre-operative preparation through anesthesia and recovery.

Hands-on practice today = confidence in the clinic tomorrow! 🧡🖤
