Is this course for me?
One area that is becoming a more progressive role of the RVN is helping to monitor treatment responses, particularly in Osteoarthritis clinics.
Objective measurements and reporting are very tricky when dealing with chronic patients. Therefore, we have to do the best job we can with our skills and tools available. One of these measurements to help us monitor progress is doing a gait assessment on our patients.
Gait assessments are one piece of the puzzle when monitoring but they can help us in many ways. they can help us to identify areas of pain, weakness, compensation, areas of improvement from treatment and much more.
Accurately doing a gait assessment is a skill that takes lots of practice.
Join Emily our resident rehabilitation RVN whilst she takes you on a deep dive into the why's and how's of practical gait assessments in veterinary practice, and how you can get on-board with gait assessments with your patients in clinic.

Read Moreuseful for behaviour practitioners! I wouldn't say a 'deep' dive but incredibly useful and affordable CPD for behaviourists and trainers especially since so many cases of reactivity or low tolerance to handling and grooming can involve muscular skeletal issues. This can help behaviourists flag potential areas for investigations to Veterinarians enabling a good collaborative approach to benefit mutual clients. Thank you!

How is this course presented?
Our courses are more than just a webinar.
You will be taken through easy to digest bitesize chunks of learning, via a series of informative tutor video presented slides.
Research shows, that online learning knowledge is easier to retain and absorb if video content is used rather than just audio, which is easier to just switch off from and become distracted. This way you can have a human connection to your tutor which is so important.
