Members of the veterinary industry encounter unique challenges and pressures, often daily, and the emotional impact of these demands can be substantial. Highlighting the importance of well-being for all those involved in the veterinary community and developing solutions to address mental health challenges is essential to provide support and ensure a sustainable working environment for those who provide vital care to our animals. Natasha Mitchell spoke with Colette Kealy and James Glass, two Irish vets who have a strong interest and expertise in mental health, to discuss the growing mental health crisis in the industry, their experiences and how we can help ourselves and those around us to acknowledge problems and get the supports that they need. This podcast is intended for support and should not be considered a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you or someone you know is experiencing mental health challenges, we encourage you to consult a qualified healthcare provider, or to engage with VetLife available through the Irish Veterinary Benevolent Fund at www.ivbf.ie or call 1800 145 145.
