Exploring Wellbeing in Veterinary Students and Student Veterinary Nurses

Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey. I’m Rachel, a veterinarian who has personally experienced work-related stress and burnout. I graduated in 2019, and frequently practiced yoga throughout my studies. I turned to yoga to help navigate my journey through burn out, and in 2024 I trained as both a yoga teacher and a sound bath practitioner. I now hope to share these tools with others in the veterinary profession, as I feel our stresses are quite unique.

The purpose of this survey is to gather insight for the development of a veterinary-specific wellbeing app, with an emphasis on mental health.

All responses are anonymous, and participation is completely voluntary. It should take approximately 5 minutes to complete. Some questions may touch on sensitive topics related to wellbeing; please only answer what you feel comfortable with.

All data will be kept confidential and will not be shared with third parties. You can request removal of your data at any time by emailing: rachelturneryoga@gmail.com.

As a thank you, you may choose to enter a prize draw to win a £20 (or equivalent currency) Amazon voucher.
