Caffeinators, you may remember our recent episode Sara Hunt talking about all things VTS Diagnostic Imaging (if you missed it, be sure to check it out!), and we're back again with another VTS(DI)! This time, Liane Shaw came by the Vet Tech Cafe. Why two guests from the same Academy, you ask? Because they are doing two VERY different things with their credential. Liane works in Academia at Purdue teaching the next generation of veterinary technicians about all things DI! We talk about education, the advancements in the field of DI, the Academy itself, and so much more. Be sure to tune in!

Caffeinators, you know we don't often have guests at the Vet Tech Cafe that aren't credentialed technicians, but when we do, it means it's an important conversation. This is one of those episodes. Caitlin Palmer came by recently and she is a career CSR and is on the President's Advisory Board for the North American Association of Veterinary Receptionists, NAAVR. Did you know that existed? Some amazing people have started that organization and we talk a lot about it and the role of the CSR, and also that sometimes contentious dynamic of the front vs back of the hospital. There is some real wisdom and entertainment in this episode, don't miss it!
