SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/19/25 - Redefining the Gold Standard: A New Framework for More Accessible Care - UC Davis KSMP
DESCRIPTION:What if the “gold standard” isn’t gold for everyone? \nWe all know it’s time to have this conversation. At best\, one-size-fits-all thinking in veterinary care limits our ability to help—and feels disempowering on both sides of the exam table. At worst\, care without context results in barriers that prevent us from even meeting the pets who need us most. \nLet’s flip the script! \nA standing-room-only presentation at this year’s Animal Care Expo reinforced what we’ve all been thinking: It’s time to say no to the status quo! Join us Monday\, May 19\, from 1- 2:30pm Pacific for Redesigning the Gold Standard: A New Framework for More Accessible Care. \nBy the end of this webinar\, you’ll be able to: \n\nArticulate the difference between spectrum of care\, incremental care\, gold standard\, and standard of care—and learn how contextualized care is critical to all.\nMatch care to context—balance medical best practices with real-world constraints\, community needs\, and ethical obligations.\nUnderstand how the law supports your ability to provide care.\nSCOPE before you SOAP.\n\nPresented by Dr. Jennifer Bennett\, Dr. Sarah Mantovani and Kelly Bremken\, MSSW \nRegister now: https://sheltermedicine.zoom.us/webinar/register/8017470939827/WN_QUVCHUn_RvKtsnVarFa8dw
