Beyond Just You’s Post

Looking through photos I have taken over the last few months, something struck me... Most of these photos were taken at different veterinary hospitals in different locations... Different jobs, job titles, roles, responsibilities, certifications, education, etc... Different genders, sexual orientations, religions, political parties, generations, etc... But the commonality between all these photos is that despite our differences, the incredible humans in #veterinarymedicine unite around their passion for animals, the humans that care for them, and the people on their teams. When you look at these photos...Veterinary Medicine is NEVER about one individual. It isn't a DVM, Practice Manager, Veterinary Technician, Vet Assistant, Customer Service Rep, Kennel assistant, or any other position in a hospital. Veterinary Medicine is a COMMUNITY. Veterinary Medicine is a TEAM. No matter what position you "play" on the field, we all have to do our job so that the entire team can be successful... I am proud to be a part of the Veterinary Practice Partners team and serve our incredible hospital teams in any way that I can... But I am also proud to be part of the #VetMed industry, and to do everything I can to make our ENTIRE community, better. "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together." #VeterinaryPracticePartners #VPP #togetherweRISE #bebetter

What's the point of a credentialed veterinary technician? When it's obvious that clinics can run on people "trained on the job"- why keep credentialing around? Practice acts rarely keep anyone accountable (except New York, because....New York). I don't see a single conversation talking about this in vetmed, besides Ashli Selke's stand while the lights were literally turned off on her. Are you fighting for them? Do you care? Are they "enough" to stand for a credential? If not...maybe we should try something different instead of beating the same horse, eh? Considering the profession is growing at an unprecedented rate, "Employment of veterinary technologists and technicians is projected to grow 21 percent from 2022 to 2032, much faster than the average for all occupations", I'd love to know WHERE they plan to find those ALMOST 15,000 technicians they're going to need next year when only a fraction of that graduate from AVMA accredited programs. Seems to me...that technicians are a dying breed. Tell me I'm wrong. Dare you. (I'm just asking. I know my opinion...I want yours.)

Today, a word for aspiring veterinarians. For many, veterinary medicine isn't just a career, it's a calling. As you embark on this journey, there's one element you'll need besides knowledge and skill: the right attitude. Here are three attitude pillars that you can rely on: Compassion - Compassion and empathy is not just for the animals who can't advocate for themselves, but also their worried parents will forge a strong foundation of trust. Resilience - In your journey there will be setbacks and losses, but your unwavering spirit will see you through. Remember, every life you touch, every moment of comfort you provide, makes a difference. Lifelong Learning - Embrace every opportunity to learn new techniques, stay updated on advancements, and never stop being a curious student of your profession. Lastly, the veterinary community thrives on collaboration and shared experiences. Don't hesitate to connect with fellow vets online and offline, share your experiences, and learn from theirs. Remember, the challenges you face are not unique, and the support system you build will be invaluable. #vetlife #petcare #careers
