SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/19/20 - The Future of Animal Sheltering: Elements of the Animal Social Services Coalition Model - AmPA and Maddie's Fund
DESCRIPTION:The sheltering system as we know it was created more than 100 years ago and depended on addressing animal issues separately from human issues. Today\, we are long overdue for a new approach that is in line with human social services and social justice movements and considers animals as part of family systems. Join the Executive Committee of the American Pets Alive! Animal Social Services Coalition to hear about how through collaboration with shelters around the country we plan to prototype an entirely new system to serve pets and people in our communities. \nThis webinar is presented by Dr. Ellen Jefferson (AmPA/APA)\, Kristen Hassen-Auerbach\, Gina Knepp (Michelson Found Animals Foundation); Lisa Lafontaine (Humane Rescue Alliance); Bobby Mann (AmPA) \nREGISTER:  https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_S5cSvorMSce035SMo4neCQ

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/14/20 - COVID-19: Adapting to New Models & Protocols in the Veterinary Clinic - Clinician's Brief & Zoetis
DESCRIPTION:While predictions and restrictions continue to evolve\, one thing seems certain: COVID‑19 will continue to play a role in how we practice veterinary medicine for some time to come.\n\n\nWhen it’s important to minimize interactions between pet owners and veterinary teams\, best medicine might mean a more aggressive work-up and treatment plan than in more relaxed times. Learn how you can adapt your approach in this roundtable discussion—and see how it can translate into success for your practice\, a better experience for your clients\, and optimal care for your patients.\n\n\nWHAT YOU’LL LEARN\n\n\n\n\nThe objective of this webinar is to give veterinarians and their staff practical ways to provide comprehensive care and practice best medicine in the current constrained practice environment that limits the number of actual visits and rechecks.\nAttendees will learn how to optimize important aspects of patient care which include the pre‑visit plan\, pre‑visit communication\, the visit itself\, the discharge process\, and the virtual recheck and follow up.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a webinar discussion and explore new options to give clients what they need in these uncertain times. \n \n\n\n\nCLICK TO REGISTER Here
