Stress is a common challenge within the veterinary profession, with long hours, emotional demands, and high responsibility often taking their toll. In our Veterinary Wellbeing Hub, we’re committed to supporting vets in managing stress by providing practical resources, expert insights, and tools that encourage balance and resilience. Our goal is to help every veterinary professional feel equipped to protect their wellbeing, reduce stress, and thrive both personally and professionally.
Three webinars to help vets tackle stress in the workplace.
Stress in an umbrella term and truly understanding the emotions that underlie our state of overwhelm is a key to managing it. This webinar will dive into the topic of stress and help listeners to develop new tools to tame their stress.
Stress can affect the performance of individuals, teams and the business. In this webinar we will explore some of the common stressors in practice, their effects on individuals, teams and the business and look at how to manage them more effectively.
This module will guide you into forming the habit of focusing on the causes of negative stress and how best to reduce its daily impact.
