But how well are we REALLY doing that? In episode 112 of the Medical Nursing Podcast, and the first episode of VNAM 2026, we're talking all about what utilisation really looks like. We'll explore the workforce crisis driving this conversation, what the evidence says about veterinary nursing - how patient care improves, how practice revenue improves, and how professional longevity and burnout improve - and we'll look at HOW to do more with your patients, in your practice, right now.
