Successful candidates are given a license to practice veterinary medicine. Every state requires a veterinarian to take and pass a licensing exam. If accepted into a medical school, the course of study usually takes another four years, making that a grand total of eight years of schooling. Most veterinarians apply for veterinary medical school admission while obtaining a bachelor degree in a compatible field. They are ultimately responsible for all patient care and outcomes. The veterinarian is solely responsible for diagnosing, prognosing, prescribing medication and performing surgery. There may be times when an employee may be asked to work at a level below their expertise, but in keeping with the philosophy of quality animal care, the opposite should not take place. Tasks performed in the hospital, to provide animal care, should be assigned to persons in the level where education and training exists to ensure a positive outcome for the patient.
Persons with varying degrees of educational experience are staffing the veterinary hospital.
