Breanna Johnson, a first-year graduate veterinary education intern-Public Health Activity at Fort Carson. It gives them the opportunity to learn and improve on emergency procedures and suturing techniques.<\/p>\n<p>This training prepares the soldiers for being in a deployed environment. Fort Carson is a U.S. Army installation located in El Paso County, Colorado, near the city of Colorado Springs. The Fort Carson Veterinary Treatment Facility is professionally staffed by Army Veterinary Corps personnel with the primary mission of providing complete veterinary care for all government-owned animals, but the training given here also serves another purpose.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere will be times when a veterinarian may not be around, so the soldiers need to know how to take care of the patients,\u201d said Spc. Cameron Jennings, the veterinarian center\u2019s NCO in charge.<\/p>\n<p>During the clinic, the animal care specialists and food inspection specialists were given a safety briefing, instructions on handling the instruments, such as using needles and forceps, and suturing patterns, Johnson said.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4008\" style=\"width: 874px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/todaysveterinarynurse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/Teddy-Bear-Clinic-1.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4008\" class=\"wp-image-4008 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/todaysveterinarynurse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/Teddy-Bear-Clinic-1.jpg\" alt=\"Teddy Bear Clinic\" width=\"864\" height=\"495\" srcset=\"https:\/\/navc.sitepreview.app\/todaysveterinarynurse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/Teddy-Bear-Clinic-1.jpg 864w, https:\/\/navc.sitepreview.app\/todaysveterinarynurse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/Teddy-Bear-Clinic-1-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/navc.sitepreview.app\/todaysveterinarynurse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/05\/Teddy-Bear-Clinic-1-768x440.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-4008\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Stuffed animals in need of some repairs await the start of the Teddy Bear Clinic at the Fort Carson Veterinary Center.

Letting everyone know what the veterinary center has to offer.<\/p>\n<p>And for the military children who brought their stuffed animals to the clinic, that outreach made a difference, Johnson said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Eric Parris, Garrison Public Affairs Office, wrote this article, which was reprinted with
