Over 200 respondents from the veterinary industry were asked seven questions about the key challenges they faced, their experiences and what they feel the industry trends will be in 2023. 70% of respondents were from Australia and New Zealand, and 30% were from the UK and Ireland.
The results were compiled into this eBook with the aim to provide guidance, examples and inspiration to help you empower your teams and create a forward-thinking practice.
Unsurprisingly, the global veterinary shortage continues to be a prevailing theme and was one of the top 3 challenges identified by the respondents.
The other top two challenges identified were: Staff recruitment/retention and Mental health.
“But beyond the pressure of demand and its impact on sufficient staff resources, national and local events such as the current cost of living crisis also mean mental health, stress levels, burnout and wages are the top things veterinary practices are really worried about.”
The eBook also provides a range of solutions to the challenges including suggestions on how you can take care of your customers and look after your staff.
“Financial struggle and times of scarcity can seem like a frightening prospect for many business owners, but it also presents an opportunity to become more creative, flexible and shrewd.”
We may be nearly halfway through 2023, but it’s never too late to consider where your veterinary practice currently is and start planning where you would like to be.
Use your past to guide you.
