Have You Thanked a Veterinary Technician Lately?

Technicians play a vital role in your veterinary healthcare team. This week, and every week, make sure your technicians know how much you appreciate them.

National Veterinary Technician Week (October 13-18) is also a great time to encourage them sign up for the Veterinary Support Personnel Network (VSPN).

VSPN is a FREE online community tailored for your non-veterinarian staff, offering continuing education, message boards, and lots of other resources.
 

The VSPN Notebook is NOT just for
veterinary support staff.

"I wish I'd had this when I was a student and new grad. It's filled with lots of the little factlets that I was always looking for," says VIN co-founder, Paul Pion.


Find it via the VIN Library, the VSPN front page, and the VSPN Library.

How do you/does your practice handle Good Samaritan-presented injured strays?

Participate in this latest Quick Poll on the Front Page.  
 

Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) can be a controversial topic.  In last week's Front Page Quick Poll, your VINner colleagues reported a wide array of opinions and practices ranging from 63% who believe acupuncture can be useful to 3% who feel the same about Reiki. Roughly a quarter of VINners don't feel any CAM options are supported by enough evidence to warrant use in practice.  What do you think? Visit the Quick Poll Archives and take this poll to share your insights.
