Welfare-Centred Clinical Decision Making WebinarPLUS Welfare-Centred Clinical Decision Making WebinarPLUS Decision making in clinical cases is rarely black and white, often there isn’t one right or wrong decision. This is something that can be emotionally challenging when we are concerned with ‘doing the right thing’ and not being confident with what that is, is a common stressor in clinical practice. How do we decide what diagnostic tests to do and when, what treatments to use, whether the animal needs medical or surgical management, and whether they need to be hospitalised, managed as an outpatient, or referred. Further, how do we balance these decisions with other practical, owner and financial considerations to reach good decisions that we feel confident about! This webinar with Dr Andrea Harvey embraces the challenges of clinical decision making, and focusing on patient welfare illustrates how this can be a useful tool to aid decision making, providing clinicians with confidence in making the best decisions for their patients. |
