DENVER (PRWEB)
March 21, 2022

Fear Free, LLC announced a collaboration with PSIvet, the nation’s largest veterinary group purchasing organization, to make their certification programs and educational modules more readily available to PSIvet’s 5,500+ veterinary practices. Fear Free’s programs aim to make veterinary visits happier, safer, and more efficient for veterinary professionals, pets, and pet owners alike by ensuring that every interaction prioritizes the pet’s emotional wellbeing as much as their physical health.

Since 2016, Fear Free has provided online and in-person education to more than 115,000 veterinary and pet professionals. By closely listening to the needs of the veterinary profession, Fear Free has built a robust catalog of certification programs and courses that focus on the emotional wellbeing, enrichment, and the reduction of fear, anxiety, and stress in pets and improving the experience of every human and pet involved. Both individuals and veterinary practices can become Fear Free Certified.

“We are tremendously pleased to welcome PSIvet to our Fear Free community and look forward to collaborating with them to best support their member hospitals,” Fear Free CEO Ruth Garcia said. “PSIvet’s engagement with Fear Free demonstrates their commitment to the emotional wellbeing of animals, which will directly benefit not only their member hospitals but ultimately the patients they serve.”

As a leading group purchasing organization, PSIvet works with thousands of independent veterinary practices to promote independence for the benefit of practice owners, pet owners, and pets. This partnership will allow independent veterinary practices to compete on the same level as larger organizations, with access to the same groundbreaking educational tools and certifications on a more affordable scale.

“We are excited about our new partnership with Fear Free and the ability to bring this important training to our members at a reduced cost,” PSIvet Executive Director of Operations Dan Jones, DVM, said. “During these times of staff shortages and increased turnover, this can be a great tool for practices to attract and retain staff members.”
