May is Mental Health Awareness Month.
The veterinary profession, sadly, has one of the highest rates of suicide.
Veterinarians and team members combat stress, burnout and various mental health challenges.
Sometimes those who appear to be smiling and making others laugh are in deep pain. We deal with a lot of sick patients and have to deliver sad news to many owners. We also help many patients cross the Rainbow Bridge.
Please check in on your friends and remember to always be kind. Many people are struggling.
