The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine invites applications for an open (tenure/clinical track) faculty position in the Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences for a position in Veterinary Anesthesia and Pain Management
Position Overview
The appointee will join 4 ACVAA diplomates in the Anesthesiology and Pain Management Service, which is further comprised of 3 residents, 3 large animal technicians, and 11 small animal technicians. The Anesthesiology and Pain Management Service is located within the comprehensive Veterinary Medical Center which includes state-of-the-art facilities with equipment such as endoscopy, laparoscopy, digital radiography, ultrasonography, computed tomography, 3 Tesla MRI, and 24-7 small and large animal emergency and critical care units. Anesthesia monitoring and ancillary equipment are commensurate with that necessary to sustain a state-of-the-art clinical service
Performance Objectives
The successful candidate will be expected to share clinical responsibilities with 4 other ACVAA diplomates to provide clinical service in large and small animal veterinary anesthesia and pain management. The successful candidate will contribute to clinical instruction of residents, interns, veterinary students, and is expected to communicate effectively with faculty, staff, and students of the various large and small animal clinical rotations. Some telephone/e-mail consultation with referring veterinarians is expected.
Clinical teaching responsibilities will include small group and laboratory instruction of veterinary and graduate students/residents. Participation in didactic teaching is also expected. In rotation with the other anesthesiologists, the successful candidate will share equally in providing emergency back-up consultation to the anesthesia residents and the technicians responsible for large and small animal primary anesthesia after hours/evening and weekend emergency duty. Faculty members are expected to be involved in professional and community outreach, committee service, and curriculum development. Participation in continuing education events and outreach activities for the public and private practitioners is expected. Clinical-track candidates will be assigned up to 75% time in clinics, including clinical teaching of students and advanced training of interns and residents. Sponsored research is not required for clinical track faculty, yet clinical research, publications, or other scholarly activities to advance clinical veterinary medicine are expected and encouraged.
