The pain of arthritis (osteoarthritis or OA) adversely impacts the lives of dogs and cats as well as the activities we can share in with them. A multimodal approach to therapy typically offers the best outcome for affected patients. The focus of this presentation is on arthritis care and pain management in practice, leveraging the veterinary team in the care of patients, and the economics of providing the various modalities in the general practice setting.
Managing osteoarthritis in dogs and cats requires a team effort. This segment will serve to provide veterinary caregivers with insights on how to convey value in the services you provide and improve client acceptance of your recommendations. Discussion includes:
- Diagnostics and the value they provide to your clients, patients, and the practice
- How to leverage the veterinary team to talk about arthritis with clients
- The benefits to learning new skills and providing advanced care for your patients
- What all of this advanced care should cost and how to help clients afford it all
- Strategies to improve client acceptance and adherence to your diagnostic and treatment recommendation
