Want to help animals? This is for you!
The Portland Animal Welfare Team (PAW Team) provides free veterinary care to the pets of the homeless or people living in acute poverty. Our medical database is based on Saleforce and has been specially customized for veterinary practice. It's easy to use, with lots of pull-down menus. We provide training for you prior to the clinic. This is a new system for us and we're looking for YOUR input as to how well it works.
Our clinics are casual, fun and energetic. You'd be working alongside vets and CVTs, entering the medical data from the files. Great way to gain experience for your education, career path or just to help us help the pets who need us the most!
