CE CreditsEveryone wants euthanasia procedures to go well, but occasionally they don’t. A dysthanasia is the opposite of a good death, or at least that’s one way to define it. Defining what is and is not considered a good death is complicated. In this webinar, we’ll review what pet parents and veterinarians deem a good death so we understand what’s not. We’ll discuss how to best address dysthanasias when they happen, to protect the mental health of the pet family and the veterinary team. Dysthanasias are upsetting; handling them correctly makes all the difference.

This transformative webinar is ideal for all veterinary professionals interested in advancing their technical euthanasia skills.

The webinar covers:
  • The major differences between euthanasia and dysthanasia
  • How to prevent dysthanasia
  • What to do when a dysthanasia occurs
  • Effective communication with grieving clients
  • Protecting your team

Participants will earn 1 RACE-approved CE credit upon successful completion of the quiz after viewing the webinar.
