AAHA Pain Management Guidelines Certificate Course
Create a brighter tomorrow for companion animals
And build a future where pain has no place in the lives of our patients.
Imagine a world where veterinary staff anticipate and prevent pain before it even begins. And when pain strikes without warning, the protocols in place provide the swiftest relief, even in the most challenging situations. Veterinary professionals have an obligation to prevent and alleviate pain in patients. Not only that, but pain relief is essential to successful clinical outcomes.
Stay a step (or several) ahead of pain
The AAHA Pain Management Guidelines Certificate provides a comprehensive dive into effective multimodal approaches focusing on preemptive and proactive treatments with excellent team coordination.
