JUSTIFICACION

En el sur de California el average de trasnporte de un hospital a otro es de 25

minutos, lo cual es un tiempo inadecuado en las situaciones de emergencia, ya que
el tiempo es crucial para poder salvar en algunos casos la vida de un Equido. Otra
situacin que se presenta aparte de el tiempo de transporte es el numero elevado de
equinos que se encuentran en California. En California actualmente se encuentran
aproximadamente 56 hospitales de equinos, aunque este numero se vea
impresionante en realidad no lo es y es un problema que buscamos resolver. Desde
el 2009 se encuentran 698,345 caballos en el estado de California, estos son caballos
de monta, recreativo, deporte (carreras, salto, dressage). Esto nos dice que cada
hospital tiene que ver al menos 8,118 caballos por ao lo que significa que cada
hospital tuviera 22 pacientes por da para poder cubrir el numero alto de equinos en
California.

Nuestra propuesta para poder resolver los problemas que se presentaron

anteriormente es abrir un hospital de equinos en la zona de Butterfield Ranch. Esto
acortara el average de tiempo de 25 minutos a 15 minutos. En el caso de los
pacientes que tiene que ver cada hospital tambin habr una reduccin de 6
caballos por da.

Though no definitive data is available on whether there is a shortage of

equine veterinarians, there was, prior to the recession, a perception of such a
shortage among equine practitioners (Green, 2008). In the 2007 AAEP
Lifestyles and Salary Survey, 68% of respondents reported that their practice
had difficulty recruiting new staff, and 39% reported a shortage of
practitioners in their area (AAEP, 2008).
One estimate of future workforce needs in equine medicine would be to
consider the rate at which the current pool of AAEP-member veterinarians in
the United States who spend more than 75% of time in equine practice
(approximately 4,254) would need to be replaced over time, assuming that an
average working career is projected to last 35 years. To determine the
number of new graduates needed annually to replace those who retire, the
total current workforce (4,254) is divided by the projected career span (35
years). The result is that an estimated 122 new equine veterinarians are
needed each year to maintain the size of the current workforce. According to
AVMA annual surveys of new graduates, a much smaller number of new
veterinarians are taking jobs in equine practice, ranging from a high of 66 in
2006 to 37 in 2011 (AVMA, 2011b).
The recession that began in 2007 has reduced demand for equine
veterinary services and has changed workforce needs in equine veterinary
medicine, but to what extent it has done so is still largely unknown. One way
to measure the recessions impact is by monitoring the decline in the number
of new positions advertised through the AAEP. As of June 2009, AAEP online
job postings had fallen by 25% compared to previous years, and had
stabilized at this reduced level over the next months. During the same period,
overall traffic at the AAEP Career Center had also decreased by 25%.
