✨Service opportunity!✨This year, the SCVMA Team Members Group is partnering with Grandpaws Foundation in a pet food drive. The Grandpaws Foundation provides food for the pets of low income senior citizens in this area. If you are interested in helping, we just need places to put collection boxes. If your hospital would like to put a collection box in their lobby, please send a direct message to this page. We have 12 wrapped boxes ready to go. If we run out of boxes, you can still participate using your own collection box. We will collect all the pet food during the first week of January. Happy holidays! ❤️😃🐶🐱
For all of you working on Thanksgiving, thank you!! ❤️

Thank you Liz Hughston for posting this
Today begins National Veterinary Technician Week! Thank you to all the technicians who work so hard. How are you promoting the profession this week?
Some ideas:
1. Submit a press release to your local news outlet educating the public about technicians and this career path.
2. Visit a school and talk about the veterinary technician career.
3. Create a board in your lobby describing your technicians and what roles they do in the hospital.
4. Create a social media post educating the public on the roles technicians play in society.
5. Join your local, state or national technician association to support their efforts to improve the field.
6. Celebrate your technician colleagues with words of encouragement or small gifts.
The SCVMA is the nations largest regional veterinary medical association representing over 700 hospitals and 1200 members. We consider ourselves to be the source for all items related to veterinary medicine in Los Angeles and Orange County, California.
Thank you Melissa Tompkins with South Coast Veterinary Management Solutions for your informative talk tonight about a very delicate subject. 😊
Thank you Elaine Myers and the SCVMA paraprofessional group for having me speak tonight! I'm so happy I could provide communication training on one of our most difficult appointments, the euthanasia. I didn't get to see everybody's faces but I really appreciate all the communication in the chat.
This is so important to remember. Care is not black and white, good or bad. There is a spectrum and we need to respect owner’s choices. More compassion, less judgment. ❤️
Surveys of recent graduates and their employers highlight the need for a revised educational model that better prepares veterinary graduates for the realities of private practice; a model that will produce more-competent and more-confident veterinarians who are ready to practice on their first day in the profession and can command salaries commensurate with their proficiency. https://jav.ma/3yK8iRW
