Episode 19: Navigating miscarriage, infertility and assisted fertility in veterinary workplaces

Vet Record recently published a paper on the experiences of vets and vet nurses around miscarriage, infertility and assisted fertility (MIAF) in veterinary workplaces. In this episode, Suzanne talks to two of the authors on the paper, Nat Scroggie and Zoe Belshaw, about the study, which found that nearly a quarter of people left or considered leaving their workplace due to their experiences at the time. Common issues centred around lack of policies or an awareness of them, insufficient leave being available and insensitive comments causing further distress.
