“We, as clinicians, are uniquely positioned to turn the tide on the opioid epidemic.

Daily use of the internet has become a way of life for many people, and with the advancement of technology and Internet of Things (IoT)1, our clients are increasingly equipped with health information before attending appointments.

Veterinary ethics teaching and application in practice have changed considerably recently.

In our profession, there are certainly many challenges that we often face on our own.

Last issue I discussed the topic of veterinary nurse initiative (VNI) and the proposed unification of credentialed titles, which hopefully will reduce confusion and improve the visibility of nurses.

If anything prevents continued advancement of this professional body, it may be the confusion over why there are so many different titles.
