Atlas
" At first glance, Veterinary Medical Team Handbook appears
to be another of those books that attempt to summarize everything
and therefore sacrifice depth of coverage in the process. However,
this book and companion CDs differ substantially from other
published books in the genre of global coverage. Where this book
definitely changes gears is in its primary focus on patient triage
and client communications. The first 2 sections are not organized
by academic subject; instead, they provide a
case-based-systems approach aimed at directing personnel into
a systematic and thorough evaluation of patients with appropriate
responses (for veterinary technicians) to a wide variety of
situations. Virtually every page contains important information to
elicit from a client when taking a history or to deliver to a
client when releasing a patient. Given that teaching someone how to
obtain a medical history, perform patient triage, and conduct
client communications is one of the most challenging areas in the
education of veterinary technicians, this approach is a welcome
breath of fresh air. The companion CD-ROM is also a departure from
the usual in that it is much more than just a reorganization of the
printed text. The cases provided on the CDs are informative, fun,
and challenging. They take the information in the book and
synthesize it into situations that provoke the type of critical
thinking veterinary technicians need to achieve. Most impressive
are the extremely good audio recordings of heart sounds that
accompany each case. I will definitely use this book and the CDs in
my courses, and I clamor for more and better from this talented
author." - Journal of the American Veterinary Medical
Association, March 2008
"The strength of this book lies in the comprehensive format of
each section's chapters and their topics. Etiology, signalment,
common patient assessment findings, diagnostic methods and current
up-to-date treatment options for common canine and feline
conditions are each briefly reviewed for each topic. Photographs
are clear and helpful. The box of "Key points for discussion with
the client" that is provided for each topic is presented in easy to
understand terms to facilitate communication with the owner. Key
terminology is presented in bold print for easy reference in the
glossary, and the medical techniques and methods... are up to date
with today's veterinary world." - TechNews
"This is a useful, user friendly, well illustrated quick
reference source for paraprofessionals on general practice
subjects. The CD-ROMs, algorithm flowcharts, and glossary are
additional valuable learning tools." - Doody's Book
