Responding to Violence in the Veterinary Workplace

Emergency management and conflict management are frequently difficult topics, though when presented in an audience-focused way, a healthy discussion usually results.

Mike Hemond joins our Jan 24th Friday colleague connection meeting on Jan 24rd to facilitate a workshop on how to respond to violence in the veterinary workplace. The goal of this community discussion is to support ourselves with information, gain knowledge of how to keep our patients safe, and continue to serve even in the face of constantly evolving challenges.

With 20+ years as a law enforcement officer with assignments in uniform patrol, crime scene processing, major vehicle crash reconstruction, major crimes investigation, fugitive apprehension, and other high-school resource assignments, Mike brings two decades of experience to answer our community’s questions and raise our preparedness.

This workshop will include some scenario-based exchanges, open community dialogue, and actionable steps for participants to engage with after the event.

Please bring your questions and experiences to discuss with the community during this event.

Register for this community workshop here.

We hope you can join us!

• January 24rd 4-5:30p MT

• Cost: $35 (sliding scale on registration page, contribute anything you can)
