Though mental illness has traditionally been considered a taboo topic,  the mental health (or lack thereof) of veterinary professionals has become a hot topic in recent years—and even more so as the world slowly emerges from the coronavirus pandemic. Perhaps the best way to de-stigmatize the topic is through open discussion—and a strong community of support. On this episode, find out what resources are available to veterinarians who are experiencing compassion fatigue, burnout, addiction, or even thoughts of suicide, as we sit down with Dr. Colleen Opremcak, wellness director of the Ohio Physicians Health Program.
In the second segment, we continue our Meet the Board series with OVMA Secretary, Dr. Eric Gordon.
