How is Your Risk Management in the Veterinary Office?

By SK Sherman
An emerging issue for veterinary practices today relates to Risk Management.   Controlling risk can be a daunting task under the best of circumstances and busy veterinary practitioners can overlook this very important element of business management. One could say the ideal way to control risk is to eliminate it or not allow risk in your practice. We know however, that you cannot simply eliminate risk but you can be aware of it and implement processes to manage it.  Accurate real-time communication helps resolve issues before they occur.
This is where Veterinary Pharmacy Reference (VPR) can be a very valuable tool.  VPR will print out a Client Information Sheet (CIS) to give to the guardian that confirms the medical treatment being provided for the patient.  The CIS documents the name of the medicine; the dosage; the reason for the treatment; precautions; special treatment considerations; side effects; drug interactions; approved species; what to do if an overdose occurs and the washout period for the medicine.  Additionally, it has your contact information in the heading. VPR is integrated in AVImark.
Give your medical team and clients a greater sense of comfort by being proactive.  Download a fully functional demo of VPR at www.vpronline.com or call 866-639-3866.

VPR clients say it best!
"It amazes us that so much pharmacology is available with just a few keystrokes. The cumulative history feature helps assure us that we are providing the very best care for our clients/patients. Standardized treatment is supported by the Interaction of the Prescription History, Washout Period checking, the Dosage Calculator and the Interaction matrix checking. VPR is an amazing time saver and quality checker."
Kate Christman, DVM
"I'm impressed with how easy it is to find information on medication, dosages and interactions.  This is definitely a valuable resource we use in the Veterinary Teaching Hospital Pharmacy."

    A Veterinary practice management software is basically a tool which helps in dealing with daily operations at a veterinary clinic. Conventional vet software’s allows capturing and recording data such as demographics of the patients, scheduling of appointment, along with other day to day job for vets.
