Vet shortage communications resources for practices

13 December 2021

This week, we are launching a campaign to help raise awareness of the impact the veterinarian shortage is having on veterinary teams around the country and to set public expectations.

Through social media, a poster designed for clinics and a media release, we will be promoting the fact that many veterinary practices have had to change the way they work during the shortage but animals are still receiving high quality care when they need it. We will be asking the public to be patient if their animal is waiting longer than usual for routine checks or procedures.

This page has resources that veterinarians and practices are welcome to use to share this message.
