PULSEPOINTS Will This Webinar Be Recorded? THERE IS A DAY FOR THAT! Good news! The lunchtime and Sunday webinars offered by SCVMA, as well as virtual chapter meetings, are all considered interactive CE meetings so long as participants attend during the scheduled meeting times when the speaker is presenting the webinar. These meetings are recorded and listed in the library on our my.scvma.org listserv. Viewing the recorded webinars on your own time is considered self-study. You can find these recordings under the community " SCVMA Virtual Webinars. " Just click the library tab for a list of over 150 hours of recorded CE for your viewing pleasure.

The cases have ranged from major medical conditions to challenging surgical procedures, but the common thread is pet owners with real financial need, who want to provide the care their pets need. If your practice hasn't taken advantage of this and would like more information, you can find it on the SCVMA website (www.scvma.org) or the AHF website (http://www.animalhealthfoundation.net/how-we-help/angel-fund.html). Or, better yet, pick up the phone and call Allyne at the SCVMA Offices (714821-7493) or email her at membershipdesk@scvma.org. She can provide information or enroll your practice. There is absolutely no cost to sign up. Thus, there is nothing to lose and everything for your patients to gain.
