"At my previous employer, we had a very open waiting area and at times we would have very sick pets alongside animals that were just there for routine checkups and annual vaccinations. This was a potentially dangerous situation for animals that had contagious viral infections. I spoke with the management team and we were able to keep a small area for 'well pets' to safely wait to see their veterinarian."
