A Call to Life: Building Wellbeing and Resilience in Veterinary Care

This book aims to help veterinary caregivers increase self-efficacy, decrease unnecessary suffering, and increase sustainability in their mission to support animal health around the world. It directly challenges the dysfunctional culture that expects veterinary caregivers to sacrifice their own wellbeing for their profession.

Key Features

  • Integrative Approach: The book uniquely combines real-life stories from a range of veterinary caregivers with evidence-based theory, practical activities, discussion, and reflection points to empower veterinarians.
  • Systemic Solutions: It describes how to discuss and collaboratively create systemic solutions that promote healthier "ecosystems" for vets to work within.
  • Mental Health Normalization: The book helps to normalize the conversation around mental and emotional health challenges in caregiving environments.
  • Resilience Skills: It guides readers to develop essential skills of reframing, mindfulness, and self-care strategy implementation to support holistic veterinary well-being.
  • Culture Shift: The text promotes collectively choosing to shift the framework of professional conversations toward psychological safety, optimism, and purpose-driven experiences.
  • Combating Compassion Fatigue: It combines shared experiences with academic research into the contributing factors of compassion fatigue and how to counter these, providing a wide array of possible solutions to build resilience.
