New officers and Board members
The 2008-2010 members of the BOD were installed at the General Membership meeting September 20th at IVECCS. This was an historic event as the election of Harold Davis, RVT, VTS, marks the first time a technician has served as President of VECCS, an international organization of nearly 4,000 members of which nearly 3,000 are veterinarians and 870 are technicians. Harold has been on staff at University of California at Davis Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital for over 20 years, serving as supervisor of nursing for the emergency and ICU sections. He has served on the VECCS Board in various capacities for 12 years. Harold is an internationally recognized speaker and veterinary nursing care specialist. He was instrumental in development of the Academy of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Technicians (AVECCT) and the Academy of Veterinary Technician Anesthestists (AVTA).
