How to get a veterinary assistant job when I’ve been on a 22 yr disability?

Question

I was disabled for 22 years and after being put on a new medication, I felt well enough to start working again. My true passion is veterinary care   I would be willing to accept any job including the front desk. My years as a customer service representative would give me the best possible experience for a front desk job.
