I support the board 100%. I can't prescribe medicine, diagnose a patient, or perform surgery as a licensed equine veterinary technician so why should an assistant NOT be limited to what they can do as well? Does my education and passed board exam mean nothing? The board is doing this for the safety of the patient and by doing so is preserving the need for LVTs. And that makes me happy. To those of you who have previously commented disagreeing with the board, SHAME ON YOU.
