The Cost of Caring

The Cost of Caring

Veterinarians suffer from one of the highest suicide rates in the United States? The emotional demands of euthanasia, poor work-life balance, ceaseless internal drive for perfection, and disgruntled pet owners who bully and vilify them create compassion fatigue, burnout, and depression among those most dedicated to caring for our beloved pets.

The Cost of Caring is presented by your local public television station.
