Sick of Being Short-Staffed by Sick Staff?

See this content in the original post

It’s been quite the year for being short-staffed due to sickness in veterinary clinics. COVID-19, seasonal flu, curbside practice and the enormous emotional toll veterinary professionals are paying have led to workplace shortages. And even shorter tempers.

Hosts Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, RVT discuss how to deal with unexpected staff shortages in veterinary practice. Whether due to physical illness or emotional depletion, how can your team prepare for last-minute “call-in sick?” 

Our hosts share personal stories, experiences, and solutions that every team needs to hear. Whether you work with 150 or 5 co-workers, there’s at least one tip you can apply to your personal life and professional environment in this week’s episode.

As Beckie says, “If you’re struggling, rewind this podcast and play it for your manager or owner!”

Stay safe and sane out there, Viewfinders! Let us know how you deal with being short-staffed due to sickness in your clinic!
