Veterinary Nursing
Don’t forget nursing’s legacy
I was keenly interested in the editor’s column about the Veterinary Nurse Initiative and in Liz Hughston’s comments.
Veterinary Education
Midwestern U doesn’t have a distributive model
I would like to address the article on distributive veterinary education, which mentions Midwestern University [“The Future Has Arrived,” February/March 2019].
Personal/Professional Development
The road ahead
A support position doesn’t have to be a lifetime job. You have other options in the veterinary field if you’re motivated to do something else.
Client Communication
Revisit vaccinations
Don’t promote routine exams as merely a time for shots. Use the occasions as an opportunity to practice preventive medicine and to detect early signs of disease.Veterinary Nursing
A condescending reply
I am a dual-licensed certified veterinary technician in Arizona and registered veterinary technician in Oklahoma who supports Liz Hughston’s Viewpoint [“Stop Using a Non-Existent Title,” April/May 2019].
From the Editor
Independents Still Rule
Supported by big investors, consolidators have gobbled up a couple of thousand veterinary practices.
