Because caring for pets shouldn’t cost your team their wellbeing.
Behind every appointment, adoption, or procedure is a staff member carrying the weight of client emotions. Over time, that load can become overwhelming — leading to compassion fatigue, high turnover, and burnout. Your team deserves care, too.
At The First Call After, we provide licensed, grief-informed support that helps staff process difficult moments, build resilience, and stay grounded in their mission without sacrificing their mental health.
