• As a courtesy to the clinic host, no charges will be incurred for ~ travel time/gas each way to/from the airport. No charge for travel time if flying.

• Reimbursement for driving time and expenses vary depending on a number of factors.
• Per hour travel rate may be less if combined with another trip or if a multi day clinic etc.
• The  minimum of 50$ round trip unless it can be combined with other travel

🥕Accommodations and transport (if necessary): 

• Hotel rooms in something like a Best Western or Red Roof Inn or other inexpensive clean hotel in a safe area are acceptable options.
• A clean guest house or very private quiet immaculately clean spare room with a private bath and a ride to/from the airport can work with approval, on a case by case basis (if budgets are restricted – please reach out,  as it’s our goal to serve all of the positive horses and peeps that we can while supporting Compassionate Horse Click financially.)
• Wi-Fi and quiet time in the evening are necessary for Melissa to be her best for you and your horses each moment of the clinic! Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
• Rental cars are not necessary in most cases. Host is responsible for transport to and from the airport. Uber or host pick up from the airport are fine.

🥕Provisions for Clinician 

• NOTE: We used to have hosts provide all food etc., but because people were way over doing it and spending so much time and money buying and preparing food, we went to this instead:
• Food per diem is 40$ per travel and/or clinic day.
• This way, if the host wants to provide additional food, it’s fine. But, Melissa will visit the grocery store upon arrival and/or get take-out and it's no fuss no muss so the host can enjoy themselves and their horse time. 
• A quick stop by a grocery store and/or stopping for take out like Panera etc. will usually do if providing transportation to and from the airport. 
• We want this clinic experience to be EASY for the host so they can positively immerse themselves in the clinic or private immersion experience, so choose whatever option will be the simplest and most enjoyable for you. We realize some folks love to cook and entertain, but *We don’t want it to be “all about the food for the humans or the horses!” lol

🥕Horses: Individual participants are responsible for bringing reinforcers for R+ clinics. Everyone will want to bring a variety of reinforcer types, values and volume per their horses preferences. It’s best to have a very low value food, medium and high value at a minimum. Hosts will want to have extra reinforcers on hand for those participants who may be less prepared.
