This hands-on class for kids will teach them about different species, unique animal anatomy and physiology, and introduce them to caring for different animal lifestyles. The veterinarian leading the class will present a few different interesting cases in emergency medicine. The kids will then have the opportunity to engage in a laboratory component with x-rays, ultrasound, EKG, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation monitoring. In this class kids will participate in diagnostics and learn how to interpret them. They will review and read x-rays, observe a blood draw and ultrasound demonstration, and learn to take accurate blood pressure readings.
