Let's Talk About Veterinary Burnout... Veterinary burnout is a pressing issue in our field, and it's time to address it with compassion and action! Earlier this year, the AVMA released the 4th edition of Merck's Wellbeing Study. Here are some key findings and steps we can take to support each other: 1. Wellbeing & Mental Health: A significant amount of veterinarians report feeling exhausted, with younger vets experiencing higher levels of distress. Encouraging mental health support and counseling can make a huge difference at your practice! 2. Work Culture: Creating a positive and healthy work environment is a game-changer. Employee assistance programs (EAPs) and a supportive clinic culture can reduce stress and burnout. 3. Work-Life Balance: Maintaining a social life outside of work and practicing self-care are vital. Help your team manage their stress to foster a healthier workplace. Remember, we’re all in this together. By taking these steps, we can create a more supportive and resilient veterinary community.

Can you tell we are a team of pet people? We're back with another #EmployeePetSpotlight! Meet June, our team member Haley Atkinson's adorable pup. June is a 1.5-year-old mix of Beagle, Pitbull, and Pug. Her favorite activities include going on walks (especially tracking the scents of rabbits and squirrels in the neighborhood), taking naps and cuddling, enjoying car rides, finding and chewing up socks, and standing in the kitchen while her parents make dinner. Her favorite thing about Koala is that Haley gets WFH flexibility and can spend most days with her! Plus, June always has her meds, like Simparica Trio, stocked and ready each month. Thank you, Haley and June, for being part of our Koala family! Koala team — whose pet should we spotlight next? Comment down below! #KoalaPets #PetSpotlight #WFHPets
