Patient Care & Quality Medicine

Staff member Julie by brick wall

Veterinary Emergency & Specialty Hospital of Wichita offers a range of exceptional continuing education (CE) programs to help our technicians and veterinarians expand their knowledge, hone their skills and continuously improve the quality of care they offer their patients. 

Our most recent presenter, a regular consultant of ours from Sterling, Virginia, is highly regarded in the veterinary industry. Julie Antonellis, LVT, VTS (ECC) has nearly two decades of experience in emergency and critical care. She provides detailed assessments and training for veterinary practices looking to elevate the level of nursing care they are providing their patients.

Julie presented to our hospital technician staff and current students of WATC pursuing a veterinary technician license. She gave an in-depth lecture on capnography and pre and post-operative care of critically ill patients.

Capnography is the monitoring of the concentration or partial pressure of carbon dioxide. CO2 is a crucial compound to monitor during anesthesia and patients on a ventilator. This training session provided an intensive refresh in addition to learning better methods of patient care and quality medicine. Our hospital prides itself on taking a progressive approach to medicine. We are dedicated to providing the best possible care to your pets, that’s our promise to you.
