10 Design new protocols Protocol name: Obesity/weight reduction Basic Idea: Successfully establish a protocol for patients that need weight reduction Rationale: Obesity and morbid obesity carries significant health risks which reduce both the quality and longevity of our patients lives. How it will work: All staff members will promote a healthy BCS at all times. Each will have a script that respectfully allows them to discuss weight. Who needs to do what: Client service- BCS, MCS, weight tracking, calorie requirements, send out congrats cards, be versed on health risks CVT CS plus dietary recommendations CVTA s same as CVT s Volunteers BCS, MCS, support for dietary recommendations Management - same as CS Doctors all of above along with recent evidence based medicine on obesity Body condition score 9/9 Needs weight loss of 5 pounds Can eat ½ cup of r/d daily Environmental stimulation Weigh every two weeks Nutrition is Medicine Your clients know that NUTRITION for their pets is very important They are going to follow someone s advice- let it be a medical recommendation Make certain that your hospital knows more than the pet store clerk Educate your clients so they make the right nutritional choices for their pets 10
11 YOUR NUTRITION EDUCATION AAHA Nutritional Guidelines - lists many excellent websites as references Veterinary Conferences Veterinary Journals Ask the pet food representative for your clinic for abstracts and journal articles relating to nutrition in pets, along with any courses they offer Learn about levels of research Evidence Based Medicine Team Education Nutritional CE at staff meetings Provide information on the science of nutrition & the tools to communicate it to your clients. Remove the translational barriers Present this in everyday language as opposed to the language of medicine Make these talks short and concise Address the client perspective Needs to be ongoing conversations Add a bit of humor and have FUN!!! 11
12 Mini CE Subjects The role of nutrition in puppy and kitten growth. What s the big deal about large breed puppy formulations? How important is salt or omega fatty acids in diets for cats with urinary tract disease? How can a food help a cat with chronic kidney disease? Why on earth does this food cost so much? Is table food OK to combine with an allergy diet? How is JD different from glucosamine supplements? How to take the weird out of explaining Brain Diet. Nutritionists and Nutrition/Food companies representatives often will visit your staff meetings to provide education. This brings a fresh perspective and new means of presentation along with up to date research information. There are many web based nutrition curriculum opportunities available for staff. These are motivational with milestones and prizes. Interactive Learning Techniques See one, Do One, Teach One Interactional Learning Transmission Type Education 12
13 Interactive Learning Activities Role playing Nutritional jeopardy Body Condition Scoring lab Exam Room Implementation Goals efficient, convenient, part of the rest of the process, effective & interactive communication with your client Include prompts & resource materials in the exam room Report Cards / SOAPS Examination Record These must have a space to record the following: Life stage or age equivalent Weight and Previous Weight BCS & MWS Current Diet & Snacks & Supplements Your nutritional recommendations Picture of the BCS you utilize and circle what the patient is at that exam Writing down this information validates it in your clients eyes 13
14 Involving your Client Have a Body Condition Scoring Diagram accessible Have client friendly anatomic models & diagrams available Have Caloric Requirement Charts available You now have your client involved and engaged in an interactive conversation about their pet s health. 14
15 You have become your client s GUIDE to their pet s nutritional health They have been shown pertinent aspects of their pets nutrition during the physical examination. They have seen and felt their pets body & muscle condition score. They will receive an individualized nutritional plan based on the nutritional assessment and the physical examination. Interactive conversations are far more effective in gaining client acceptance and support of your medical recommendation plan. The pet has a greater potential for receiving the care and support they need. The client is happier. You are happier with this method of medical relationship. Pet Nutrition Events Local Events AmeriCanine Idol Paws In The Park Grand Opening of the Dog Park Community Events Duck Race Kids Safe at the Local Hospital Fall a- Palooza fun run event Pet Health and Fitness Fair Summary You will assess the nutritional status of your practice with the traits of a practice that embraces nutrition as an important component of excellent medicine, and with the AAHA Nutritional Assessment Quick Guide.

The exam form &/or report card will be structured with the prompts for pertinent information. Body Condition and Muscle Condition Scoring will be used in the exam process to draw in client participation. Nutrition will be included with the other components of excellent medical care such as diagnostics, procedures, and pharmaceuticals. Education of your team will become an ongoing process.
