Bill overview
This bill modifies regulations for how veterinary technicians can administer vaccines and medications to animals. It allows technicians to do so at certain animal shelters and control agencies when the veterinarian is nearby or available by phone. The bill maintains the requirement that the veterinarian must be readily accessible, ensuring they remain responsible for the animal's care. This change aims to improve access to preventative veterinary care, particularly in facilities like shelters.
