The Veterinary Medical Team Handbook is designed as a training resource for veterinarians, technicians and staff.

Coverage ranges from administrative tasks and client communication to common diseases, disorders and procedures. The aim is to increase the staff's ability to detect and manage health problems and to enable the team to be more effective communicators with each other and with clients.

Two accompanying CD-ROMs contain training modules and interactive case studies for further learning and practice.
