Abstract
Very few people are well versed in the various recommendations, laws, and rights of various types of assistance animals. This problem becomes more apparent as you look into the healthcare system where you see clinicians, other healthcare workers, and hospital systems struggling to navigate this field, especially in regards to their patients. The purpose of this project was to create informational flyers that could help elucidate the different rights and roles of different types of assistance animals, provide a deeper look into service animals specifically in the state of Vermont, and create a universal template for EHR's that clinicians may share and use to better serve their patient's requesting emotional support animals (ESAs).
