What to include in your animal care management

  • Keep the animal alias in context

    Keep animal alias, owner instruction, nonclinical task, observation, review owner and next action together so the next person can understand the request or record.

  • When the next step needs a decision

    An owner-provided care note conflicts with an older stored instruction. Keep the conflict visible for the responsible carer's review.

  • Keep next action visible

    Keep the care observation with the responsible person's next action.

  • Choose what each person needs

    Give the animal-care coordinator a working view and the animal owner a review view. Keep animal alias and owner instruction attached to the decision as the work moves between them.
