This session gives shelters without full-time veterinary coverage a practical way to raise their standard of medical care.
This session gives shelters without full-time veterinary coverage a practical way to raise their standard of medical care. Built on the 2nd Edition ASV Guidelines, it covers intake triage, pain management, infectious disease response, and treatment pathways for common conditions like respiratory disease, vomiting and diarrhea, and vaccine reactions. Attendees leave with ready-to-use protocol templates designed for real shelter conditions, a framework for decision-making and documentation when veterinary access is delayed or remote, and strategies for teamwork between veterinary professionals and frontline staff. With workforce shortages expected to continue, the goal is a more consistent, humane, and sustainable system for both animals and people.
Presented by: Dr. Becca Boronat, MV, CAWA, National Shelter Medicine Veterinarian & Melanie Lyons, LVT
