Euthanasia By Injection
Whether you've never performed euthanasia or have years of experience with it, you should attend this comprehensive two-day seminar. Catch up on the latest techniques and drugs and discover their effect on animals. This workshop covers anesthetics, legend drugs, anatomy, verification of death, and worker safety. An entire section deals with the unique stress felt by those who perform euthanasia. During the hands-on section, you will see how to perform intravenous, intraperitoneal, and intracardiac injections, as well as gentle and humane restraint methods. (If attending this class, also consider attending the Managing Compassion Stress workshop, which is often offered the day after this workshop.)
Who should attend?
- New shelter staff and ACOs who are required to perform euthanasia
- Shelter and animal control managers and executive directors who supervise euthanasia technicians
- Shelter staff and ACOs who are required by law to be euthanasia certified
- Animal welfare supervisors and directors
