On the previous episodes of Radio Vet Nurse Interrupted, I shared the way the vet industry crisis has affected my life personally and I also spoke to industry leaders and experts about the biggest stressors that are leading to this crisis. If you haven't listened yet, I suggest you head back to catch up. Today I wanted to start looking to the future and will be speaking with everyone from directors, to counsellors, to the President of the AVA to get their take on what they think the industry can do to make lasting change. Dr Warwick Vale and I discuss the Australian Veterinary Association's partnership with SuperFriend including research and findings. Link here for information about that research and the AVA's mental wellness strategy. Thanks for joining me on Radio Vet Nurse Interrupted. This series may be uncomfortable at times - but I really believe the disruption is here and I thank you for joining me on the journey.
