From the Editor
At AAHA, we help celebrate our amazing techs—as well as veterinary assistants—with our Teams@Work photo contest, and our technician-themed issue each October.
Technicians are crucial to the smooth operation of veterinary practices across the world. They help with client relations, critical procedures, and essential support for veterinarians. Every October, we celebrate technicians with National Veterinary Technician Week, which this year falls on the week of October 15–21.

Digital Transition
You may have heard by now, but it’s official: Trends is going full digital starting January 1, 2025. What does this mean? Well, it means that you will no longer be receiving a print edition of Trends. But don’t mourn the end of print! Digital means we can provide lots of enhanced, interactive content, with up-to-date news stories, as well as the in-depth feature articles you have come to expect from Trends over the past 40 years. So, enjoy the last few issues in print, and then make sure you log on to aaha.org to keep getting the best content that vet med has to offer.
Nominate Your Employee of the Month
Don’t forget to head over to aaha.org/EOTM to nominate one of your co-workers for the Employee of the Month contest, and you could win $100 for yourself and $400 for your nominee. There is no catch, it’s free to enter, and you get free money!
Coming Next Month
November will be our Senior Issue, discussing all things related to our geriatric friends. We’ll talk about senior enrichment, myth busting around senior treatments, and the new CPR guidelines for pets.
