AAHA Initiatives

AAHA’s Guide to Veterinary Practice Team Wellbeing

AAHA is launching a major initiative to address wellbeing from an alternative perspective that utilizes a positive, proactive approach to help prevent or mitigate mental health issues in veterinary practice teams by encouraging practice team members to embrace the benefits of self-care and to provide practices with the resources to optimize their workplace culture. Please read this booklet written by various experts in the field of personal wellbeing and culture. Please share this with your colleagues. We hope it serves as a springboard for discussion and leads to action that will make a difference in your personal and professional lives.
