Course Description:
Did you go to veterinary school to be a typist?  I didn’t think so!  Medical Records have become a significant pain point for emergency veterinarians.  The ER has unique challenges including increased liability due to the type of cases presented and additional communication with the referring veterinarian.  Proper and efficient documentation is key to protect yourself and provide continuity of care.  This lecture will give the practitioner tools to help improve the quality and efficiency of records that they can apply to their next shift regardless of the record keeping system utilized in their practice.
