Our Mission
The
Louisiana State Board of Veterinary Medicine was created within the
Department of Health and Hospitals to promote the public health, safety
and welfare by safeguarding the peoples of the State of Louisiana from
incompetent and dishonest practices of veterinary medicine; to encourage
more effective utilization of the skills of licensed veterinarians for the
health and welfare of animal patients in the delegating of certain
veterinary health care tasks to qualified Registered Veterinary
Technicians; and to provide the most humane restraint, capture and death
possible for unwanted, diseased, dangerous, and discarded animals with the
training of Certified Animal Euthanasia Technicians for animal control.
The
right to practice veterinary medicine is a privilege as
set forth by the Legislature and enforced by the Board. |
