My Project
For my project I am working alongside my mentor at an animal hospital to gain a hands on experience in a field of interest. My hope for my project is to gain as much experience as I can.
1. Find a mentor- Starting my project I had to find a mentor that I could work with for the year and that I would be able to get hands on experience with.

2. Start working with my mentor- After finding a mentor I started meeting with her. In the first few visits I mostly observed and learned about reading slides, taking x-rays, different diseases, and vaccines. In these first few visits I set up a schedule with my mentor.
|
3. Observing surgeries- After the first few visits me and my mentor set up a day for me to come in and observe a surgery day. I got to observe a few different surgeries and get hands on experience such as preparing a cat for surgery
by clipping its nails and shaving its fur. .
