My name is Steven Jeffery, I am interning with Spanish Fork EMS.  One day in September we loaded the fire trucks with water and food to take up to the firefighters working on the canyon fires.  I have learned to do ambulance checks and restock them with what supplies they need.  I have also gone on two car accident calls. I helped run vitals and assisted them with what was needed. I  attend their morning checks and have talked to them about many aspects of emergency medicine.

Rebecca Powell- When I started my internship at West Mtn Veterinary Hospital, I had to ask where everything  was and what it looked like. After two months I am much more comfortable. Techs will quiz me on things during our down time and I know more than some of the others now, and I am teaching them!  I’ve been able to help flush out bladder stones and observe spays, neuters and dew claws.  I love my internship and don’t want it to end!
