SAVMA House of Delegates (HOD) has approved revisions to its Duty Hour Guidelines, which recommend fewer duty hours per week for veterinary students completing their clinical rotations to promote better wellbeing. Here is Megan Gulsby, SAVMA Wellbeing Officer, presenting the motion on the HOD floor during its June 23 meeting, held concurrently with AVMA Convention 2024, June 21-25 in Austin, Texas.
