Participate in this latest Quick Poll on the Front Page.  

Who monitors anesthetic recoveries in your practice? For over half of your VIN colleagues, technicians take the bulk of that responsibility. While 33% say recovery can be monitored by a veterinarian or a technician, less than 1% of practices stipulate that only a veterinarian can monitor. Visit the Quick Poll Archives to view the complete results and to take this and other polls.
