As a nonprofit, volunteer organization we look to students to help manage the clinic and fulfill our mission between school years.
Volunteers work under the supervision of the Medical Director, the Wildlife Medical Clinic veterinary interns, and two student managers. This team is responsible for the intake, care and release of all animals admitted to the clinic. Summer student volunteers also have the opportunity to help run the operations of the clinic. Groups can vary in size but will be around twelve to sixteen members.
The program begins the Saturday after finals in May and goes through the Friday before school starts in August. Volunteers must sign up for a minimum of 4 shifts per week which is about 20 to 25 hours in the clinic a week, but volunteers are always encouraged to sign up for more to gain additional experience.
Responsibilities Include:
- Feeding sick, injured, orphaned wildlife
- Medicating patients in the nursery
- Food preparation
- Help in clinic maintenance
