Sip and read


Happy Monday morning fellow managers!  Who needs another cup of coffee?   Go on, you know you want it.  

While you sip that, I want to go over some upcoming events that you may not be aware of.

#1  The NY State Association of Veterinary Technicians is having their Spring Seminar this coming weekend.  I’ll be doing 2 hours of lecture, so if you feel like a day trip to Java, NY (that’s the city in NY, not the Jacob Javitz Center in NYC), head on up.  Should be a great conference with a great group of people.  For more information go to http://www.nysavt.org/seminar2011

#2  Not to be outdone or upstaged, another group of great people (led by the indomitable Tracy Turner, CVT), the New Jersey Veterinary Technician Association will be holding their annual conference, Sunday, April 17th.  Please take a look at their website, http://www.njvta.com/, for more information.  Over the past three years, this group of inspired and dedicated technicians have really pulled the State’s veterinary nursing together and done an excellent job at improving the care we provide our pets and the awareness of the industry within the state.

#3  Have I harped enough about the May 19th event at Redbank with Karyn Gavzer?  And for the love of god, take 20 seconds and do the survey at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/FKCHXQP.  We’re going to use the information to illustrate some points about where we are as a group with our human resources.  Strictly anonymous, so go ahead and let her rip.

#4  What about the online classes?  You don’t want to treat your receptionists and assistants to a fast little learning session with the Halow?  This is not your regular CE, but an integrated approach to turn education into superior service, the endorsement of your practices and increased awareness of the value of veterinary services.  Give it a whirl.  Next one is Tuesday, April 11th at 1pm on diarrhea (no wisecracks, please).  Send me an email at bash@halowconsulting.com if you would like an invitation to this live webinar.
