Happy New Year, Caffeinators! We hope you had a great holiday season and a safe New Year! We are starting off 2023 with an awesome episode. We've said before some of our favorite episodes are those that are brought to our attention by a listener-episode topics we would've never thought of, let alone know who to talk to about it. That's what this episode is, and it's about disability and accessibility. Sandra Tucker reached out to us to suggest an episode discussing disability in our field and thankfully for us, and you, she was willing to talk about it. Sandra is a veterinary technician student in a distance learning program and discussed her experience with working in a hospital setting in a wheelchair. She discusses some of the stigma that many of us have, that disability = incapability, but she shows us where the error in that thinking lies, and that she can lift the heavy dogs and do most, if not all, of what many in our field would guess she couldn't. We also discuss that with a few minor modifications, most hospitals would be wheelchair accessible, and several other very interesting topics. As Sandra says, let her be the one to tell you what she can and can't do!
