Veterinary Visit Records
Purpose: Maintaining veterinary visit records ensures that all health interventions by veterinarians are properly documented. This supports ongoing animal health monitoring, compliance with health regulations, and effective decision-making about future care.
Poor Outcome:
Veterinary visits are not recorded, leading to gaps in the animal health history, which could result in missed treatments or failure to address recurring health issues. The farm faces regulatory non-compliance and potential health risks for the herd.
Expected Outcome:
Veterinary visit records are maintained accurately, documenting all diagnoses and treatments. This allows for better tracking of animal health and ensures compliance with veterinary health standards.
Excellent Outcome:
A digital system tracks veterinary visits in real time, automatically integrating health data with treatment plans. The farm achieves optimal herd health management, with comprehensive records that ensure proactive care and full regulatory compliance.
