Indiana Veterinary Technicians
Oath of Ethical Conduct
I dedicate myself to serve as a member of the modern veterinary team as together
we serve the needs of mankind, animal welfare, and our community
Working in a clinical practice, research, or industry, I will faithfully abide
by all laws, regulations, and ethical codes that govern veterinary technicians.
I will conduct myself in a manner, which inspires the respect and confidence of
my employer, colleagues, and the public.
I will seek the mutual exchange of counsel and assistance with the clinical staff
when it appears that the quality of service will be improved. I will strive to
better my skills by keeping current my knowledge of new methods and ideas and
by maintaining an open mind.
Since the veterinary technician is a member of a professional team entrusted
with the responsibility of the care and well being of the animal kingdom, I make
this oath with utmost sincerity and devotion
