Hello all! I am a registered veterinary technician in Georgia. I have a degree in veterinary technology and have sat for a national examination. However, because the field of veterinary mediciane is not well regulated, there are still some states that allow anyone to use the same title as me. I am in the process of gathering as many people in our field to work towards a campaign of sorts to rectify/change the rules and regulations in regards to the support personnel in our field.
The main reason I have chose to use this board is to get information, supprot etc. form thos eof you who are more regulated, and have been through this same struggle.
So...can anyone please tell me the difference between all the different levels of being in the nursing profession and thelevel of education and examinations/CE required to maintain such titles?
Any help would be a great help to those of us in my field.
Thank you,
Melanie R. Parham, RVT
