In December 2018, VHMA member managers were asked to share their perspective on the following statements for themselves, as well as their DVM and support team staff.
- I am happy at work the majority of the time
- My level of stress at work is easy to manage
- I have ample opportunity to do work I enjoy
- I feel supported professional at work
- I feel supported personally at work.
