SUMMARY:Webinar - 12/11/24 - Isn't That Just Medicine: The Art and Science of Spectrum of Care - HSVMA
DESCRIPTION:Veterinarians are in the unique and challenging position of balancing the medical needs of their patients with the emotional\, physical\, and financial needs of their clients and their own moral and legal obligations to both. Embracing the spectrum of care can help to accomplish this delicate balancing act. \nSpectrum of care is the idea that in every situation there is a range of options–both diagnostically and therapeutically–for patients and clients. More invasive\, extensive\, and expensive options fall on one end of the spectrum while less invasive\, more cost-effective options fall on the other\, with a wide range of middle ground options in between. Within this range is the best fit for each individual patient and client. The right choice will maximize the patient’s quality of life within the client’s limitations. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDevelop an understanding of what the spectrum of care is and how it differs from current definitions of standard of care and gold standard care.\nReview literature that supports spectrum of care options in management of common case presentations including foreign body ingestion\, pyometra\, parvovirus\, and blocked cats.\nDevelop communication strategies to connect with clients and determine the best fit for each individual pet and family within the spectrum of care.\nDefining barriers to spectrum of care (more than finances!).\n\nThis webinar is FREE for all attendees. 1.5 hours of RACE CE credits (pending) for HSVMA members only. \nPresented by: Kate Boatright\, VMD\, Founder\, KMB Veterinary Media LLC \nWEBSITE LINK: https://hsvma.memberclicks.net/webinar-spectrum-of-care

SUMMARY:Webinar - 12/12/24 - Maddie's Insights: Insights and Implications from Housing-Related Animal Shelter Intake Data - Maddie's Fund
DESCRIPTION:Housing insecurity for tenants has increased in severity in the last several years as rents have skyrocketed and eviction rates have\, in many cities\, climbed higher than even pre-pandemic levels\, according to a 2024 Harvard study. Today\, more renters than ever are experiencing at least moderate rent burden as unaffordability in the rental market hit an all-time high in 2022. Housing insecurity directly impacts peoples’ ability to acquire and keep pets for life. There is a small\, but growing body of research to better understand the impact of rental housing conditions on pets\, pet owners\, and animal shelters in the U.S. and how this issue relates to broader affordable housing and tenants’ rights social justice advocacy. \nThis presentation will share the results of three research projects\, co-authored by our guest speaker Dr. Lauren Loney\, a licensed attorney\, researcher\, and advocate crafting policies and lobbying on a variety of issues at local\, state\, and federal levels. Her talk will address the impact of restrictive pet policies in rental housing on pets\, animal shelters\, and the tenants who love them. Join us to learn about trends in pet relinquishment due to housing issues and several programmatic tools that may be most useful to mitigate the flow of these pets into animal shelters. \nRegister here: https://maddies.fund/MIwebcastsRegister \nCan’t attend live? Register anyway and you will get a link to the recording after the webcast. This webinar has been pre-approved for 1.0 Certified Animal Welfare Administrator continuing education credits by The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement and by the National Animal Care & Control Association. It has also been approved for 1 hour of continuing education credit in jurisdictions which recognize the Registry of Approved Continuing Education (RACE) approval. \nKey take-aways: \n\nThe audience will understand how animal welfare and pet policy issues intersect with traditional affordable housing and tenants’ rights issues\, particularly for low-income families.\nThe audience will understand the difference between “pet-friendly” and “pet-inclusive” housing and why our affordable housing crisis\, in general\, means that policy advocacy for pet-inclusive housing include pushing back against the use of nonrefundable pet fees and rents.\nThe audience will learn about trends in pet relinquishment due to housing issues and several programmatic tools that may be most useful to mitigate the flow of these pets into animal shelters.\n\nVisit the Maddie’s Pet Forum Discussion Thread to ask questions to our presenter: https://maddies.fund/MIwebcastHousingRelatedShelterIntakeData \nPresenter: Lauren Loney\, Attorney and Independent Researcher \nWEBSITE LINK: https://maddies.fund/MIwebcastsRegister
