That decision making process begins before an animal is admitted. Recognizing that each intake creates a cascade of risks\, NACA guidelines\, endorsed by national groups and shelter medicine programs\, recommend taking active measures to eliminate non-essential intake while continuing to respond to emergency needs. In this hour-long webinar\, Dr. Kate Hurley and Dr. Sandra Newbury will cover practical aspects of communicating intake policies and distinguishing between essential and non-essential intake for dogs\, cats and kittens. We’ll cover\, not only the most effective ways to message the change in services to your community but the most effective ways to engage them in our first priority during the Covid-19 crisis: keeping animals safely out of the shelter and at home with us.

Finding peace when living during an unprecedented time is challenging. Taking time to press pause and take a deep breath allows us each permission to find our unique path to serenity in our world during the event.  Taking the path to recognize where we are\, embrace ourselves\, and find connection helps us in our resiliency during these extremely difficult times.  This will also help us get ahead of wondering what will our world look post COVID 19. This webinar will share actionable steps that we can each take to help us along in this journey of uncertainty.  For even though we are isolating and practicing social distancing\, we are all still 1 Life Connected. \n\n\n\nKimberly Pope-Robinson\, DVM\, CCFP \nPresenter \n  \nBeckie Mossor\, RVT \nPresenter \n  \nREGISTER AT:  https://event.webinarjam.com/register/62/7v41gtm4 URL:https://www.sheltermedportal.com/event/virox-webinar-finding-connection-in-times-of-challenge/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.sheltermedportal.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Rainbow-paw-prints.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200407T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20200407T140000 DTSTAMP:20260403T154119 CREATED:20200407T175239Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200425T211425Z UID:10000034-1586264400-1586268000@www.sheltermedportal.com SUMMARY:National Rounds - Tuesday COVID-19 Edition DESCRIPTION:Hello National Shelter Medicine Rounds attendees\, \n  \nToday we will be hosting National Rounds at 3pm CT (1 PM Pacific).
