149 Vetlife

Joining Brian and myself in our virtual studio we are delighted to have Dr Rosie Allister join us. She has kindly spoken to us before, the last time in 2021 (Podcast 124). Rosie manages the Vetlife helpline, a 24-hour support service for everyone in the UK veterinary community.  Her research, based at the University of Edinburgh, looks at veterinary mental health, wellbeing at work, and veterinary suicide prevention. She has written and spoken extensively about veterinary mental health nationally and internationally. She is an expert in the transition of veterinary student to veterinarian and we thought we’d catch up on Vetlife and provide tips for new graduates on how to plan for the upcoming transition. We hope that you enjoy.
