Imagine being brought to a strange place, and a stranger takes you away from your family. The stranger speaks an unknown language, pulls you across the floor, and forces you into a cold, steel cage. The smell of feces and urine lingers in the air. Uncertainty quickly turns to fear as you hear footsteps approaching your cage. You press yourself as hard as possible into the back corner, hoping they can't reach in and grab you. Against your will, you are placed onto another cold, steel surface. People are all around, holding you down, saying things you cannot understand. You begin to fight. You are so scared you urinate on yourself. It's difficult to breathe. You scream and yell. OUCH! What was that? You feel sleepy, the room spins, and the lights go out. As a veterinary assistant, how can you improve the patient experience when they enter your clinic? How does a patient's experience at your clinic differ from this scenario?
