Vets Now Glasgow Referral Hospital
Vets Now is the European leader in Emergency and Critical Care (ECC), with a proven track record in specialist-led training. Our Glasgow referral hospital offers a multi-disciplinary environment with EBVS residency programmes and discipline-specific internships across ECC, Internal Medicine, Oncology, Surgery, and Diagnostic Imaging.
We are now inviting applications for our Discipline-Specific Internship in Emergency and Critical Care at Vets Now Specialist Referrals, Glasgow.
Role Overview
This 13-month internship provides a unique opportunity to work collaboratively with our ECC specialist team, gaining hands-on experience in ICU and emergency referrals. Interns will rotate through day, back, and night shifts, with dedicated time for study, research, and collaboration with other specialties to enhance ECC-related skills.
Interns will engage in advanced patient care, supported by our experienced ICU nursing team and access to cutting-edge equipment, including mechanical ventilation, high-flow nasal oxygen therapy, and therapeutic plasma exchange.
Glasgow has a well-established residency programme, and discipline-specific interns will also be involved in organised teaching. This internship will put you in a strong position to apply for any possible future residency opportunities both in Vets Now and other hospitals.
Key Responsibilities
- Participate in the planning, diagnosis, and treatment of ECC cases.
- Manage ICU patients and emergency referrals under supervision.
- Collaborate with other disciplines to ensure holistic patient care.

- Contribute to clinical research projects alongside mentors.
- Maintain high clinical standards, accurate records, and ethical patient care.
- Work effectively with ECC specialists, residents, and senior nurses in an inclusive and respectful team environment.
