During the last several years, veterinary medicine has experienced an increase in demand for veterinary care, as well as an increase in attrition of team members and a shortage of available team members to fill those vacant spots. As such, most veterinary practices are routinely functioning with a staffing deficit while tending to a higher than usual caseload. 

These circumstances have led to burnout rates exceeding 50% among some veterinary team members. 

The benefits of utilizing telehealth services in veterinary medicine are numerous, not the least of which is providing care for pet owners who are unable to access veterinary appointments in a timely fashion. In this episode, I discuss the forms of telehealth used most commonly in veterinary medicine and the benefits for using these technologies to support veterinary team wellbeing.
