Recently Microsoft revealed that it found workers who worked a four-day work week were more productive and happier. This week hosts Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mosser, RVT contemplate whether we’re working ourselves to poor patient outcomes and burnout. Dr. Ward explains why he’s concerned we’re creating a “Generation Burnout” of veterinary professionals and how to improve inefficiencies in the veterinary clinic. Beckie shares her stories from clinics who reduced the days worked and why she’s convinced it can work in any clinic. 

Viewfinders, what do you think about this? Do you think “Generation Burnout” accurately describes our current professional challenges? What steps are you taking to increase productivity and improve staff wellness in your clinic? What do you think about working four 8 to 10-hour days? Don’t forget to leave us a review in iTunes! Thank you, VIEWFINDERS!
