Course overview
Toxin exposures are common small animal emergencies. Focus will be on having a systematic approach to general toxin exposures, in addition to taking a closer look on the most common toxins encountered in small animal medicine. Since virtually anything can be a toxin, depending on the dose (even water!), this course includes a huge variety of conditions caused by many different toxins. Anything from ethylene glycol to chocolate toxicity, and how to deal with non-steroidal overdose will be discussed.

Course overview
This course is designed as a refresher CPD course and is composed of a series of modules, with each module containing a recorded video webinar, notes to download and keep, plus clinical cases to deepen your understanding. The webinars are not live and can be viewed whenever works best for you. Tutored courses run with Susie as a tutor for three weeks (the advertised dates), plus you then get continued access for a further 11 months (so 12 months in total). You can do our courses at your own pace and at times that suit you. Nothing has to be done at set times, so the courses are perfect for a world-wide audience. Tutored courses are supplemented by a discussion forum where you can ask the tutor questions and debate topics relevant to your daily practice – this forum operates for the three weeks of the advertised course dates. Total course access is 12 months. Courses are completed with an MCQ exam (giving you 8 hours of CPD) which can be taken at any time during the 12 months the course is running.
