AAHA Director Gregory Carastro, LVT, CVBL, talks about the importance of “taking care of the caregivers,” and building a workplace where employees can thrive and grow.

The human-animal bond is an important aspect of veterinary medicine, but there are nuances that are helpful for veterinary professionals to understand.
