Technician Utilization featuring Liz Hughston MEd., RVT, CVT, LVT, LVMT, VTS (SAIM)(ECC)

Tails from a Vet Tech

The success of our veterinary practices relies on the performance of the whole veterinary care team. An important – and often underused – role is that of veterinary technicians. Having credentialed veterinary technicians on our teams with the skills we need is a critical part of building an efficient practice; so is using those skills efficiently.

This week, Liz Hughston joins Tabitha to discuss all things Technician Utilization.

Liz is an advocates’ advocate, dedicated to advancing veterinary technology,
technicians, and assistants through training, mentorship, and support.
