They use sound judgment when making decisions about patient care, respond quickly and calmly to emergencies, and maintain high standards of patient care. This person communicates clearly with the veterinarians, other hospital personnel, and clients to ensure that patients receive the care they need.

They provide the patient and client comfort by keeping the hospital clean and presentable and may provide training to other members of the healthcare team. Technician Assistants are friendly and flexible in the face of varying expectations from clients and coworkers. They multi-task, prioritize tasks well, and think creatively.
