Rekindling: Compassion Fatigue Solutions for Animal Workers

Ep# 187 Veterinary Nursing with Anna Santos, BS, RVT, LVT


Listen Later

I've never been one to play by the rules! National Veterinary Technician week is October 16-22 but I'm jumping the gun with my guest this week Anna Santos. Anna holds a BS, is an RVT and a LVT and has worked in veterinary nursing for over 20 years. 

Her varied background demonstrates all that is possible in a career such as veterinary nursing. 

We talk about all the things in this episode: -the impact of compassion fatigue and burnout on vet techs -the need for strong women leaders in veterinary nursing -how compassion fatigue impacts the clinical tech vs. the lab animal technician -career paths

-how she has learned to take care of herself to be sustainable in this field

I mentioned a Ted Talk I recently watched that highlights how veterinarians (and vet med) infiltrates all aspects of life. You can check that out here

Also, registration for my 6-month group coaching program for women veterinarians, Living a Life You Love is open until 9/30/22. Click here for more info.
