Vet Wrap Art: Ideas, Inspiration, and Impressive Artwork!
Our Veterinary Technicians, Assistants, and Doctors wrap bandages on animals in our ERs every day. Extensive wounds or bone fractures can be a very stressful time not only for the patient, but for the owner as well. But a little vet wrap art can help!
We always say our teams can do it all, and vet wrap art is no exception. From whimsical characters to holiday spirit to personalized pieces, our medical staff knows that this seemingly small gesture can mean the world to a nervous pet owner during their puppy’s emergency or cat’s bandage change. It can also be a therapeutic and creative outlet to help our Techs and Veterinarians combat compassion fatigue.
Now, we’re sharing some of our favorites from our own teams over the years! Enjoy, share, and get some inspiration for your own furry patients. Check out our hashtag #vetwrapchallenge on Instagram for more.
