As veterinary professionals, you can make a profound impact on the wellbeing of animals and in the lives of the people who care for them. At the same time, wearing a white coat comes with great responsibility that can often add unexpected stress to your career.

Because the veterinary profession is full of untapped resources, Merck Animal Health was motivated to conduct its third Veterinary Wellbeing Study in collaboration with the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA). The 2021 study, which was the first iteration to include perspectives from veterinary technicians and support staff, aimed to identify factors that contribute to greater wellbeing and lower rates of psychological distress among veterinary professionals.

The wellbeing study showed the importance of a stress management plan in navigating your wellbeing journey.

Quick follow ups from the study can be found in the full feature article.
