Love Your Pet, Love Your Vet Campaign
Royal Canin has put their support behind the campaign that aims to raise awareness within the general community of the factors that contribute to the alarming rate of burnout and suicide in the veterinary industry, as well as reduce the stigma in seeking help.
The campaign founder, Dr Nadine Hamilton has completed her doctoral research into veterinarian wellbeing and is passionate about raising awareness of this serious issue.
There are three goals of the campaign:
1. Raise Community awareness of the factors contributing to veterinary mental health
2. Reduce the stigma of speaking up and seeking help
3. Provide effective training and support for veterinary professionals via the free online support group, workshops and individual counselling and coaching.
