About the role
EVCC was created by veterinarians, for veterinarians - and for the communities they serve. Founded by 36 local general practice veterinarians (many still actively involved today), we were built to support the veterinary community, not compete with it. Our Mishawaka hospital is our fourth location and we are proud to bring trusted, emergency-only care to the region. But what truly defines EVCC isn't just what we do - it's how we do it. WE Lead with compassion Respect and elevate our technicians Support each other without ego Communicate openly and professionally Recognize that emergency medicine is demanding - and take care of our team because of it What Life Is Like at EVCC We genuinely care about whoever walks through our doors - whether it's a critical patient, an anxious pet parent, or a teammate who needs support during a tough shift. Emergency medicine is intense. It's emotional. It's unpredictable. But it's also deeply meaningful. You won't be "just a tech" here. Your assessment skills, instincts, and voice matter. Our doctors value collaboration. Our leadership team listens. Growth is encouraged, not gatekept. Your Role as an LVT As an Emergency Credentialed Veterinary Technician, you're part of a team that thrives on the front lines of emergency veterinary care where every second counts. You'll handle a wide range of cases, from minor to complex emergencies, collaborating with our doctors and team in delivering gold standard, emotionally intelligent care. You'll jump into triage, treatments, diagnostics, anesthesia, monitoring, and critical care nursing, all while being a steady, compassionate presence for pet parents in their most stressful moments. This role is for someone who wants to do the work they were trained to do (and more), continue growing their skills, and help people and their pets when they need it most.
