Animal Health Technicians

Gabrielle , AHT

Gabrielle earned her diploma as an animal health technician from Cégep of St-Hyacinthe in 2017.

During her work shifts, Gabrielle does veterinary delegated acts under the direct supervision of veterinarians. Thus, in addition to doing customer service, Gabrielle draws blood samples, executes lab tests, takes X-rays, administers treatments to animals, prepares animals for their surgeries, ensures induction, maintenance and anesthesia monitoring, and watches over the animals while they awaken once their surgeries are over.

Among all of her responsibilities, what Gabrielle likes most to do is get the animals ready for surgery and take X-rays.

Gabrielle adopted two domestic cats from a shelter. Their names are Simba and Van Gogh.
