Ethos Supports Initiative to Establish Standard Title and Scope of Practice for Veterinary Technicians

September 5, 2018

Woburn, Mass., August 24, 2018 –Ethos Veterinary Health (Ethos) has developed a position statement in support of NAVTA’s Veterinary Nurse Initiative (VNI). The initiative by the National Association of Veterinary Technicians in America is aimed at establishing a national credential for Registered Veterinary Nurses (RVN).

Ethos fully supports this work given its importance in improving patient care. “Ethos has a strong commitment to the continuous growth and development of our team members, and we believe the Veterinary Nurse Initiative provides a crucial guiding framework to help us achieve this goal,” said Patrick Welch, DVM, MBA, DACVO, Chief Knowledge Officer of Ethos Veterinary Health.“We are excited to take an active role in supporting NAVTA in their efforts around this initiative.”

The statement reads as follows:

Ethos Veterinary Health mission is to provide unsurpassed veterinary health care for patients and their human companions. We recognize the vital role that veterinary technicians play in the integrated veterinary healthcare team, and that this collaborative approach to care is essential to achieving this mission.

We support the goals of the Veterinary Nurse Initiative (VNI) to unite the profession with one standard title and scope of practice. The VNI will increase public awareness of the profession and elevate and align practice standards, leading to better patient care and consumer protection. These goals are consistent with our core values of collaboration, continuous development, innovation, quality, and teamwork. Ethos Veterinary Health is proud to support the Veterinary Nurse Initiative.

For more information about Ethos’s support of this initiative please contact Ed Carlson at [email protected].
