Boreal Veterinary Center is proud to support our referring community and their patients so that they are able to enjoy some time with family too. Our team is ready to assist you and your pet 24/7. We hope you all have a very happy and safe long weekend. A reminder that we work on a triage basis where every pet is triaged immediately upon arrival by a Registered Veterinary Technologist, but the sickest patients will see our Veterinarians first. #thanksteam #yegvets #emergencyvet #referralvet #specialtyveterinarycare #dvms #rvts #victoriadayweekend #alberta

Boreal Veterinary Centre’s mission is all about collaboration with in our team, community and with our clients. Last week our teams participated in a rigorous DISC personality workshop that was sponsored by our friends at @vetoquinolcanada. The focus was to learn more about our own personal communication styles so that we could better adapt to other people’s styles. Improving communication through out our team and with our clients is something we feel is a priority. Every team needs a mixture of all styles to be progressive but can you guess what the majority of our team members are? YEP! Most of our medical team is type C (questioning, logic focused, methodical and calm) while our client care team is more of the S type (accepting, people focused, empathic). We are very thankful for this opportunity and proud of the hard work our team put into this workshop. An extra special thanks to our facilitators and fellow RVTs, Teresa and Alana!
On March 4 Boreal Veterinary Centre held their first blood drive with our friends @canadiananimalbloodbank! They were able to collect 9 units of blood which was processed and made into 9 units of packed red cells and 7 units of fresh frozen plasma ! This was processed in their facility in Edmonton and will go on to help SIXTEEN dogs in need of blood or plasma! Huge thanks to all of our doggy donors and their families for taking time from their day to help other dogs. An extra special thanks to the CABB Unit Manager, Ashley. She was a pro and made it look too easy! We look forward to our next blood drive. If you are interested in having your dog participate please go to https://canadiananimalbloodbank.ca to learn more about donor requirements and the benefits of donating! #doggydonor #save3lives #bloodtypes #transfusion #vetmed #emergencyvet #barkcancer #yegvets #rvt #criticalcare #dvm #specialtyandreferralvet #yourpetourpurpose
A few weeks ago, the @abvma_official presented one of our very own with a prestigious award. Kate Simon, one of the founding members of Boreal Veterinary Centre, is a registered veterinary technologist with a specialty in Emergency and Critical Care. Kate was recognized by her peers for Veterinary Technologist of the year, for her passion and leadership. Kate loves mentorship, relishing in the opportunity to teach practicum students and RVTs new to ER. She has inspired an entire generation of younger RVTs to discover the thrill of emergency medicine. Kate has also been involved passionately in regulation and advocacy for RVTs in Alberta.
She has been on ABVMA council, the companion animal committee, the RVTTC, and is currently on the ABVTA board. She has been on countless task forces including the survey on RVT work force shortage, radiation safety, and was the chair of the delegation of veterinary medicine task force. Congratulations Kate on this well-deserved award. #vetmed #rvtoftheyear #abvma @abvta.official @rvttc #rvt #vts #dvm #volunteer #proudlyrvt

Dr. Eoin Clancy, our ER director and one of the founding partners of Boreal Veterinary Centre, received the ABVMA Outstanding Mentor - Individual Award at the ABVMA annual awards banquet in February. Dr. Clancy was recognized as the 2023 Mentor Individual of the year for his unwavering support and confidence in his team. Dr. Clancy is known to always be available to mentees who have questions and his willingness to spend time reviewing cases and rounds while providing assurances to his team as they learn and settle into the practice of veterinary medicine. His balanced approach to give individuals space to learn while being available to them when they need support is paramount to his character as a leader and mentor.

One of Boreal’s core values is mentorship.

Boreal sponsored the @sveccs.ucvm club and they organized a super fun CPR challenge! Congrats on a successful event! We can’t wait for next year! #vetstudents #mentorship #yegvets #cpr #swag @recoverinitiative
🚨MAY WE HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE! The @canadiananimalbloodbank has a blood shortage so @borealvet will be holding our first blood drive! With out blood, patients like Whip would die !

It is hard to believe it has already been 6 months since Boreal opened her doors and started helping pets and their families. Our team has grown to 88 amazing members and we have already helped over SIX THOUSAND pets! This has been an amazing journey and we are just getting started. We can’t wait to see what happens in the next six months ! #staytuned #yegvets #edmontonvets #emergencyvet #referralvet #veterinaryspecialist #rvt #vts #6months
As we come to the end of RVT month, we wanted to give a huge shout out to our very own Registered Veterinary Technologists. We have a team of 40 exceptional RVTs here. They provide all of the structure and supports for our hospital to function. Each one of them brings a huge piece of their hearts to work every day. They with out a doubt, have the most diverse and unique skill set and play the role of multiple paraprofessionals on our team. They are in charge of diagnostic imaging, anesthesia monitoring, surgical prepping and assisting, laboratory procedures, nursing care, client education, chemotherapy, triage as well as too many other skills to name. It is extremely difficult to capture with photos or put into words how proud of them we really are. 💕 They are simply the best. #rvtmonth #simplythebest #rvts @abvta.official @abvma_official @rvttc
It’s been a very exciting week here at @borealvet ! Our CT machine has finally arrived! Computed Tomography is a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses a combination of X-rays and computer technology to produce images of the inside of the body. It shows detailed images of any part of the body, including the bones, muscles, fat, organs and blood vessels. A few of our team members have spent the last week doing some intensive training. Next week, the machine will go through the final steps of certification and then we will be able offer this advanced imaging modality to our patients. Stay tuned for some exciting cases! #weareheretohelp #yegvets #emergencyandreferral #dvms #rvts
What a week 🎉 We have already helped 185 pets and their families! Thank you to our amazing team for helping us learn the ropes and diving right into it. We are here to help!#yegvets #dvm #rvt #emergencyvet #referralvet #boardcertified #vts
