2023/10/19

Happy Vet Tech Week, Caffeinators! What does that mean anymore? We delve into a couple of recent nuggets of content we've come across and have a discussion about those, and what we'd like to see. What does Vet Tech Week look like for you? Does your hospital celebrate Vet Tech Week and the days and weeks set aside for the other vital members of our teams, such as CSR's, assistants, bossed, etc? Or is it largely a staff appreciation week? How do you feel about all of it? We'd love to hear from you

2023/10/02

Caffeinators, we are in the era of corporatization in veterinary medicine. Maybe you've already experienced working in a hospital that was bought by a corporation, maybe you're going through that process now, or maybe you haven't but chances are you probably will at some point. That is the focus of this episode. Tia Gregorio recently joined us at the Vet Tech Cafe to talk about corporate merging from the support staff side. Tia is a CVT and hospital manager, but also holds an MBA and a doctorate in

2023/09/18

Caffeinators, you've heard us before say some of our favorite episodes are when listeners reach out to us with an idea and it turns it to an episode, often because it's something we hadn't thought of before or someone doing something awesome that we didn't know! That last part sums up this episode. Paige Allen, MS, RVT, wrote to us about some of the cool stuff she's doing IN RETIREMENT and we had to talk to her about that! Yes, she RETIRED as a veterinary technician from Purdue University and part

2023/09/04

Caffeinators, this is a big one. Remember recently when we shared the Op-Ed Stephen Cital wrote about the position of the AVMA and their unwillingness to expand the scope of practice for veterinary technicians? Do you remember when we shared his recent post about his new business venture-Remedy Veterinary Specialists that he's starting with Dr. Carrie Jurney? Well, good news! They both came by the Vet Tech Cafe recently to talk about all of this. There's some really great info in here about the

Vet Tech Cafe - Kate Howard Episode

2023/08/21

Caffeinators, have you ever peaked over the clinic fence and wondered what is out there in the great beyond? If you've been listening in, you know we've done several episodes about being a veterinary technician outside of the clinical setting, but staying under the veterinary medicine umbrella-and this is another one of those episodes! We recently met Kate Howard, LVT at the Vet Tech Cafe and talked about her path through vet med, mental health struggles, and how those led her down a different path

2023/08/07

Caffeinators, you are in for a TREAT. Recently, one of our favorite people came by the Vet Tech Cafe for some tea and conversation. Or, should we say collaboration? Listen to the episode and you'll see what I mean, but when Kelly Foltz talks, you best listen. Kelly is credentialed in FOUR states, a VTS(ECC), and currently the Mid-Atlantic Regional Nursing Partner for Blue Pearl, providing support to their hospitals in that region.

Caffeinators, get your tea and biscuits ready because we're going across the pond for this episode! We recently sat down with Jack Pye, RVN, Cert VNECC, to discuss life as an RVN in the UK! Spoiler alert, as with many of our international series episodes, it's not unlike life as veterinary technician in the US! We talk about title protection, paths to licensure, legislation, specialization, the veterinarian-RVN relationship, and so much MORE! Jack now spends much of his time in Ultrasonography and

Caffeinators, hold on to your socks because this episode is going to knock them off! If you read veterinary publications with articles on workplace culture, you've probably read something written by Josh Vaisman. We were fortunate enough to have him come by the Vet Tech Cafe recently and, wow, was this an awesome conversation! Josh started out in veterinary medicine as a veterinary assistant, has been a practice manager and practice owner(!), and then went back to school and got his Master's Degree

2023/06/26

Caffeinators, buckle your seatbelts for this one. We saw in a NAVTA newsletter a few months back a blurb about the formation of the Malaysian Association of Veterinary Nurses and Assistants, or MAVNA, and I knew right away we needed to talk to them. I emailed them and Su Via wrote back and this episode was born. She is a veterinary technician student through Purdue University's distance learning program and attends from her home country of Malaysia. She talks extensively about the role of the

Welcome back to #mentalhealthawarenessmonth Caffeinators! We're back for our second episode looking at bullying in veterinary medicine. You may remember way back to 2020 when we had Emily Ione-Kinney on to talk about bullying in vet med. She introduced us then to some terms we hadn't heard before such as lateral and vertical violence and some ways bullying occurs you might not think of. This discussion is a continuation of that one and goes a good bit further. We all discuss things we've done in our

Welcome to #mentalhealthawarenessmonth, Caffeinators. If you've been following along for any amount of time, you know this is a special month for us. We dedicate all of our May episodes each year to mental health in veterinary medicine, and often to a particular theme. This year, that theme is bullying. We'll have episodes with two guests and discuss bullying in our field in great depth. For this episode, we welcomed back Heather Carter. We spoke with her last summer about organizational turnover,

Vet Tech Cafe - Tom Seeko Episode

The Vet Tech Cafe"s Podcast ·

2023/05/01

Caffeinators, let's get weird. Let's talk money. We all want it. We all need it. What do we do with it? We can all attest to the fact that this is low-earning profession. That makes many of us work additional jobs, leave the field altogether, etc. Considering all of that, what do you think of your financial well-being? We ask because that's the discussion for this episode. This is one of our few, non-veterinary technician guest episodes, but with a discussion we hope you'll benefit from. Tom Seeko

2023/04/17

Caffeinators, if your morning cup of coffee doesn't open your eyes, this episode surely will! Alyssa Mages, BS, CVT, recently came by the Vet Tech Cafe and knocked our socks off. We covered so much ground in this episode, but at the same time, every little thing we discussed could've been its own hour of discussion. She's a founder of Empowering Veterinary Teams, and that was where the bulk of the discussion lies-what that looks like, what they do, how it started... you know we love to talk about
