Happy Veterinary Technician Appreciation Week!

In urgent care, no two shifts are ever quite the same. One moment, you’re helping a worried pet parent understand their pet’s symptoms, and the next, you’re jumping into action to help stabilize a patient who needs immediate attention. Through it all, our Licensed Veterinary Technicians (LVTs) are right there in the middle of it.

Urgent care LVTs are masters of multitasking. They triage patients, obtain vital signs, draw blood, run diagnostics, take radiographs, administer medications, place catheters, assist with procedures, and monitor patients as they receive treatment. They recognize when something isn’t right, anticipate what the medical team needs next, and help ensure every patient receives timely, attentive care.

But their impact goes beyond their technical skills. They’re the calm presence in a stressful moment, the gentle hands comforting a frightened pet, and the reassuring voice helping an overwhelmed pet parent navigate the unexpected. They balance medical precision with compassion, often in situations where every minute matters.

This week, we’re recognizing the dedication, quick thinking, and hard work our LVTs bring to every shift. Their ability to adapt, work as a team, and show up for pets and their people when they need us most is a huge part of what makes urgent care possible.

To our BetterPet LVTs: thank you for the long shifts, the quick thinking, the compassion, and all the little things you do that make a big difference. We appreciate you more than you know!
