- Medical Math Training has been pushed out on VetBloom. Completion of this training is required for all veterinary technicians and veterinary technician students. Please note the following:
- Internal Medicine Schedule:
- Dr. Lester will be out of the office on Friday, 2/20. Normal operations will resume on Monday, 2/23.
- Kaylyn Wolford will be in the hospital to perform ultrasounds on Friday (2/20), starting at 11 AM.
- Facilities Updates:
- We do not need to continue to do thirty minute fire watch rounds. Per the property manager, the alarm is in “loop mode” so if a fire is to start, the alarms will still sound. If the alarm panel reads “main flow” it needs to be silenced and we do not need to evacuate.
- X-ray inspection has been scheduled for 2/27 at 12pm. Each machine will take about an hour to inspect and will not be available for use at that time.
- The red marks in the floor will also be addressed on 2/27.
- Rachel will not be in the office or available by phone on Monday, 2/16. She will be working remote on Tuesday and will be available by phone.
- Welcomes:
- 2.16 – McKayla Rancourt, Veterinary Assistant, ER (night shift)
- Goodbyes: None
- Transitions: None
Thank you for all you do!
