Calling all vet students! A new semester is here, and let’s be honest—it can feel like stepping onto a treadmill already set to sprint.
That’s where the free 10 Days to a Strong Start Challenge comes in. From January 13-22, we’re giving you the tools to break free from the overwhelm. In just 10 days, you’ll develop the habits, plans, and mindset needed to start the semester feeling in control, not stuck in catch-up mode.
And you won’t be alone. Join a community of vet students who are working through the challenge together, sharing advice, supporting each other, and holding each other accountable.
It’s time to take a breath, prioritize what matters, and make this semester your best yet. Join the challenge at the link in the bio, and we’ll see you on Monday! #vetstudent
At our recent Hospital Manager and Medical Director Annual Meeting, we tackled an exciting—and eye-opening—team exercise! Teams had 20 minutes to figure out how to safely “dispose of toxic waste” with only limited, vague instructions from a “CEO.” To make it even trickier, employees were blindfolded, relying entirely on managers for guidance.
The challenge really underscored the importance of clear communication, trust, and collaboration. It was a great way to reflect on how we can strengthen our communication skills in real-world scenarios. 💪 #TeamBuilding
We’ve recently launched telemedicine at some of our Companion hospitals! 📱🐾
Vanessa, our Hospital Manager at Coast View Veterinary Hospital in Claremont, San Diego, shares how our new telemedicine service is transforming care for pets and their families. By offering virtual visits, we’re making it easier for clients to access appointments while reducing stress for pets who feel more at ease at home. This option has increased client satisfaction and given our team more ways to provide personalized, accessible care when it’s needed most.
