SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/24/25 - Find your popsicle hotline: Creating the ultimate adopter experience - CalAnimals
DESCRIPTION:Shelters and rescues are overflowing while millions of new pet-loving households have emerged in the past year alone. So why aren’t they adopting? The truth is adoption is losing ground. While pet ownership is booming\, shelters remain the third choice behind breeders and family rehoming. It’s time for a radical shift. \nJoin Petco Love for an eye-opening session on how to transform all facets of your adoption program into an irresistible first choice. We’ll break down customer psychology\, challenge outdated strategies and introduce fresh\, experience-driven adoption models that make saying “yes” to a pet effortless and exciting. Using innovative examples from across industries\, like the simple “popsicle hotline” that gave Hollywood’s Magic Castle hotel an unheard-of boost in guest satisfaction and occupancy rates\, this session will prove that you don’t have to spend big in order achieve exemplary service and drive customer loyalty. \nIf you’re ready to attract more adopters\, boost live outcomes and turn your shelter into the go-to destination for pet lovers\, this is your call to action. Increasing adoptions and creating new families starts with creating an experience they can’t resist. \nWEBSITE LINK: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_BXObpKnVQg-et-86J-bwKg#/registration

SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/22/25 and 7/24/25 - Access to Veterinary Care: Affordable or Excellent: Why Not Both? - CVMA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Affordable care should not equate to substandard care. This presentation will cover how to utilize registered veterinary technicians (RVTs) and veterinary assistants to expand access to care in a surgical setting. We will also explore how leveraging RVTs and veterinary assistants can enhance access to affordable surgical care without compromising quality. We will discuss how RVTs and veterinary assistants can work together to form creative anesthesia and pain management approaches\, including making CRIs easy and how to learn and implement local blocks. We will also discuss case management when overnight care is not an option. \nThis course qualifies for 1.5 CEUs. \nCVMA Online Seminars are convenient interactive presentations offering CEUs held in real-time. This learning platform allows you to participate from anywhere with internet access—from your practice\, your home\, or anywhere you have an internet connection. Attending is as easy as a few mouse clicks. You will only need internet access and either computer audio\, a headset\, or a telephone. \nThis webinar is open to veterinarians\, veterinary technicians\, veterinary hospital staff\, and veterinary students only. \nSpeaker: Robin Post\, RVT\nRobin Post\, RVT\, started her medical career as a veterinary assistant in the shelter medicine department of the San Francisco SPCA\, then assuming a supervisory role in the SFSPCA Spay/Neuter clinic.
