Nutrition Is a Team Sport

Featuring the professionals who created the NAVC’s Pet Therapeutic Nutrition Coach Certification, Dr. Ellen Lowery and VTS Kara Burns, this VetFolio Voice episode provides a thoughtful (and fun!) “team sport” approach to nutrition education in the clinic. They want to inspire the entire veterinary team to bring their “A” game when it comes to educating pet owners about nutrition for the animals they love. As the fifth vital assessment, the nutritional assessment should be completed during each patient visit, which means evaluating nutritional status and making diet recommendations. Clients need and want that information from you, but it can be challenging when they believe myths, misinformation and inaccurate facts. Dr. Lowery and Ms. Burns offer different perspectives that they have integrated into a well-rounded gameplan that you can put into practice easily. It’s game time — listen in as host Dr. Cassi explores this essential topic with two of the profession’s most respected and engaging experts!
