2021/10/15

It's time for another episode of the Vet Tech Taproom! You probably saw the viral post making its way through our circles recently about the increase in pets and patients per staff member through the pandemic, and perhaps saw the article below as well. We spent some time discussing both of these and the importance of knowing where the material that gets posted and shared comes from before sharing. We also look forward to Year 3 of the Vet Tech Cafe as our next episode kicks off the next chapter. If

Vet Tech Cafe - Karen Roach Episode

2021/10/04

When we set out on this adventure that is the Vet Tech Cafe podcast, we had a list of colleagues that we knew we could have insightful conversation about the current and future states of the veterinary technician profession with. We've also had many people reach out to us about their unique facets and outlooks of the profession. This episode is the intersection of both of those, and we are thrilled to finally connect with Karen Roach, RVT, VTS(ECC) at that juncture. Karen has been one of our biggest

2021/09/20

For most of our episodes for the Vet Tech Cafe, we reach out to a specific guest to discuss a certain issue in our field, or highlight a particular area of it. For other episodes, a guest might reach out to us, and the conversation grows more organically. That's exactly what happened for our latest episode with Alexandra Yaksich, BSc, AHT. Alex reached out to us recently to let us know she wanted to mention our podcast in an upcoming article she was writing for Veterinary Practice News about

2021/09/06

To continue our International Series, we invited Nynke Hillebrand, RVT, stateside recently, albeit virtually, to discuss life as a veterinary technician in The Netherlands! We met Nynke in 2013 when the three of us tested for the AVECCTN exam. Nynke came to San Diego, CA, all the way from The Netherlands for that exam. Without giving too much away here, there are far more similarities than differences, and we believe hearing about all of that will be as fascinating to you as it was to us! Spoiler

Vet Tech Cafe - Ken Yagi Episode

2021/08/23

There are not many people in our field that are working as hard as Ken Yagi is to change it. To know Ken is to know how many Boards and Committees he serves on, how much work he puts in every day to try to make things better, and what it looks like to be the Chief Veterinary Nursing Officer for Veterinary Emergency Group, or VEG. That last point is where we spend the bulk of our time in this episode. Ken Yagi, MS, RVT, VTS (ECC) (SAIM), recently sat down with us to discuss his role inside VEG,

Happy Sunday, Caffeinators! We recently shared a conversation and a cup of coffee with Mary Berg, BS, RVT, LATG, VTS(Dentistry), to talk all things veterinary dentistry. This hour flew by listening to Mary talk about how veterinary dentistry has changed over the years, what it looks like to be practice as a VTS(Dentistry), and the pathway to obtain that.

Caffeinators, this is an important one. Are you a member of your state veterinary technician association, or VTA? Or perhaps the State VMA if a VTA doesn't exist? Are you active and engaged in what the association is doing? We can't stress strongly enough the important work these Board and Committee members do, strictly on a volunteer basis, to make sure your profession is well represented in the legislative arena.

Hello Caffeinators! One of the more emerging areas of our field is cannabis and how these compounds exert effects on the body, and the numerous maladies cannabis-containing compounds may help. There is of course a lot of ground to cover and a long way to go, but the early returns appear promising. Previously, our third episode with Stephen Cital gave us a lot of background info on veterinary cannabis, and we invite you to listen to that episode if you haven't already, or want to brush up on the

If you asked us the question, "What episodes of the Vet Tech Cafe should I listen to?", this is an episode that would be right up near the top of the list. We always say, "the guests make the episodes", and Melody Martinez certainly made this one. In light of recent events, this episode is very timely. We discuss her work with the Multicultural Veterinary Medical Association, MCVMA, and several of their current and future projects. We also take a look at systemic racism in veterinary medicine

As the calendar turned from May to June, the initiatives and message turned from Mental Health Awareness Month to Pride Month. Both of these are vitally important to many of our friends and colleagues, and for some, probably both equally so. As such, we wanted to have a discussion about Pride Month as it relates to our professions. We sat down for a cup of tea with Erin Spencer, M. Ed, CVT, VTS(ECC), and Treasurer of PrideVMC.

Hello Caffeinators! As we approach the end of May and #mentalhealthawarenessmonth, it's easy to turn the page and move on to the next thing. But mental health is something that needs constant attention. So while the calendar may turn to June, please keep your mental health calendar stuck squarely in the month of May.

Have you been impacted by the suicide of a veterinary colleague? For too many of us, the answer is yes. Many can say that they have been on more than one occasion.

If someone close to you texted you a single pineapple emoji, would you understand what that meant? If not, give this episode a listen. We talked to Kelly Deselms about Code Pineapple and we believe it's something you should hear. This is a tremendously personal episode, but we think there is a little bit of Kelly in many of us and her words should give us pause.
