As veterinary technicians play an increasingly vital role in supporting patients and families through the difficult journey of terminal illness and death, this textbook equips them with the clinical knowledge, communication skills, and emotional tools necessary to excel in this sensitive area of practice. The book addresses the full spectrum of end of life care, from recognizing when palliative care is appropriate through post-euthanasia support for grieving clients. Written specifically for the veterinary technician's scope of practice, this text bridges the gap between clinical competence and compassionate care delivery. It covers pain assessment and management protocols, quality of life evaluation tools, hospice care planning, and the technical aspects of humane euthanasia procedures. The content emphasizes the technician's unique position as a patient advocate and client educator, providing practical strategies for difficult conversations and ethical decision-making support. Beyond clinical procedures, this resource acknowledges the emotional toll of end of life work on veterinary professionals themselves. It includes valuable guidance on recognizing compassion fatigue, implementing self-care strategies, and building resilience within the veterinary team. This holistic approach ensures that technicians can provide exceptional care while maintaining their own wellbeing throughout their careers.
