AHT Tech Attending

Describe the Issue

The current rules governing horse racing require state that licensed Animal Health Technologists must be under the supervision and control of a licensed veterinarian without explicitly defining 'supervision'. The current Alberta Veterinary Medical Association (ABVMA) rule states the following with respect to supervision of AHT's: the supervising veterinarian is on the same premises as the supervised AHT at least once a day where the veterinary practice activity takes place and has direct communication with the supervised AHT. The veterinarian need not be on the premises at the time the activity takes place.
