WEBINAR: State of Relief Veterinary Work

Veterinarians have been serving their colleagues in a relief capacity since the beginning of this profession. It likely started out as a practice owner sending his clients to his buddy’s practice down the road so he could take a few days off to go fishing. As our profession evolves, relief practice is becoming ever more popular as either a temporary work style or even a career choice. Relief practice seems to have exploded in the last 5-7 years and in some cases has been polarizing with people either feeling like relief vets are ruining or saving the profession. The reality is that if we dive a little deeper, we can learn a lot about where our profession is headed and how to make improvements in our practices by paying attention to what is driving this rush to relief. In this webinar we will:

• review the relief landscape and understand the statistics
• reveal why relief work is appealing
• uncover what relief workers are telling us about how we can improve retention
• learn best practices for utilizing relief services for maximum productivity and benefit
