Today we give a resounding shout-out to the Animal Care Technician Team.  Their nominator said, “I want to express my gratitude to the team for their hard work in maintaining a clean and safe environment for all stakeholders at the Purdue University Veterinary Hospital seven days a week. We have the best animal care technicians around.  You all make coming to work a joy every day.”  Team members also enjoyed sharing time together at the Purdue Spring Fling recently, where they enjoyed lunch, participated in a blood drive, and played games.

Fostering a healthy work environment involves expressing appreciation and gratitude. Is there someone at PVM you would like to acknowledge today?  It’s easy to make a Paws Up submission – just follow this link. Submissions are published anonymously and may be edited for length. Any PVM staff, faculty, student, or team may be nominated by anyone in our college. For more information, visit the PVM Wellness Committee website.
