In this scenario?based activity, students roleplay being part of a remote rural mixed veterinary practice with a small, close?knit team and a client base that relies heavily on the clinic as their only accessible veterinary service. The practice is overstretched, closed to new clients, and facing significant recruitment challenges, needing several additional vets and nurses. Learners explore the realities of workload management, client communication, ethical decision?making, and team dynamics in a resource?limited environment, gaining insight into the pressures and responsibilities of rural first?opinion practice.
