Lunch and Learn

Hey ladies,

We had our Merial Lunch and Learn today.  We now can sign up for free nexgard or frontline and heartgard for 2 pets.  Please sign up this week so I can get that sent in.  Sign up sheet is in the lab.

We are now a Fear Free clinic! We will be implementing a few things shortly once we fine tune and customize what we think will work for our clinic.  We already do a lot and do a good job but there are just a few more things that we could be doing.  We will have a meeting on that hopefully in May.

Eye meds are hard to come by right now.  We have what is available and affordable on the shelf.  This week I can not get Polymyxin but I was able to get neo poly dex. Go figure?!

We are going to showcase one employee each month.  This employee is randomly picked.  We have 14 employees so obviously this will take some time……  We will post the employee the beginning of each month, on the form we will have team members write what that employee does that is outstanding.  Through the month, we will write on the form things that we caught that employee doing that is outstanding.  There will also be a prize for that employee!  This form will hang in the lab on the board.  We will all make a group effort to make that employee feel special that month!

It’s that time for another quarterly check in!  This quarter we will be doing the pawsonality test.  This is an individual and team approach to finding out what breed you lean towards with your personality and what that means in the work environment.  It’s a fun way to learn about one another and to better work, understand and appreciate everyone.  Some questions might be hard to answer so ask a fellow team member what their perception is.  We will follow up with a team meeting in May and talk about everyone’s results, the breeds, personalities, and how each personality handles things differently in the workplace.  It’s a lot of fun!

Hopefully our new website will be launching soon.  I will keep you posted.

We may also be getting new heska blood machines shortly.  I will keep you posted on that as well.

As always, please let me know if you have any ideas, concerns, suggestions!  Thank you!
