What aspects of Oregon State University College of Veterinary Medicine's One Health approach appeal to you?

Self-AwarenessService OrientationCritical Thinking
Opinion (Policy)

Oregon Veterinary Medical Examining Board has completed workgroup recommendations on allowing veterinarian-client-patient relationships to be established via telemedicine, potentially changing the current requirement for in-person examinations. Proponents argue this could improve access to veterinary care, especially in rural areas, while critics worry about diagnostic accuracy and patient safety without physical examination. Given Oregon's geographic challenges and veterinary shortage areas, should the state prioritize expanding access through telemedicine or maintain traditional standards that ensure thorough physical assessment?

Opinion (Policy)

Oregon legislation (SB 976) would allow non-veterinarians to perform equine dentistry and cattle pregnancy evaluations, expanding beyond traditional veterinary scope of practice. Supporters argue this addresses workforce shortages and provides more affordable services to farmers and horse owners, while veterinarians express concerns about animal welfare and safety. The Oregon Veterinary Medical Association opposes this expansion of lay practice. Should Oregon prioritize economic accessibility of animal services or maintain professional oversight to ensure animal safety and welfare?
