Simply posting a notice in the office of the presence of students assisting in veterinary procedures is not sufficient. As a long time pet owner and frequent client of veterinary services I would not be satisfied by this. I do realize that students need to have practical experienc BUT -- I would strongly object if my animals were handled by someone other than my vet. - and in particular without veterinary supervision or oversight. I would refuse to continue using a vet practice if I had any idea of this activity going one.
