TAOG07 — The Art of Creating a Meaningful Euthanasia Experience
Is Your Euthanasia Protocol Up to Modern Standards?
If your team is still using muzzles, heavy physical restraint, or taking patients “to the back” at any point during a euthanasia, it’s time to reconsider. This course was created for teams ready to move toward a more compassionate, client-centered standard of care.
Today's pet owners expect more—and they talk about their experiences online. Industry guidelines and client expectations are evolving quickly. Minimal or no sedation during euthanasia is no longer considered best practice. Instead, families are seeking calm, connected, and fear-free experiences during one of the most emotional moments of their lives.
Veterinary teams that adapt are setting themselves apart—in all the right ways.
