Vet Clinic Employee Turnover - how to calculate the real cost - ep 064
Vet Clinic Employee Turnover Costs & Composition
Today’s show is the first of a multi episode series focussed on helping vet clinics retain the top performing vets and vet nurses in your clinic and then how to attract more vets and vet nurses like them.

When you lose a team member it comes with a very definite measurable COST.
The only time losing a staff member can be regarded as an investment is when it’s the case of one bad apple contaminating the rest of the barrel; one team member whose rotten attitude is at risk of causing everyone else on your team to leave.
