Wellness Toolkit

The objective of the Toolkit is to provide a starting point for those working in the veterinary community in Manitoba, regardless of role or type of practice or geography, to better understand the resources available to them to support their wellness while they are in their workplace. We want everyone who chooses to work in or adjacent to veterinary medicine to thrive in their workplace, ultimately contributing their best to the field of veterinary medicine in Manitoba and to the health and welfare of Manitoban animals, people, and ecosystems.
