The TB reactor: It’s more than just a lump

TB testing runs the risk of becoming a technicians role, with a repetitive and technically straightforward test being applied at the request of an external agency. In this session, we will explore the impact of TB disclosure on farm, and how as veterinary surgeons we can ensure that we engage with controlling the controllable, as well as supporting our clients through a challenging period.

Learning objectives:
To understand that the veterinary role in TB testing is greater than that of a testing technician
To appreciate some of the impacts which TB disclosure can have on a farmer
To consider your own approach to supporting farmers following a TB disclosure.
