VetPal is an app/website designed to allow animal owners to directly connect with the veterinary practice who provide the primary veterinary care, responsibility and service to their animal(s).
VetPal allows for a Client-Patient -Practice-Relationship to exist. (CPPR). Animal owners can do this remotely by booking appointments via the app or messaging the veterinary practice regarding a query. In addition to this, the app allows the client to request a Veterinary prescription from the veterinarian for an animal medicine they recommend for the animal under their care- to benefit the animal’s health and welfare.
VetPal will also allow the attending veterinary practitioner to liaise with the animal owner/keeper on request of animal treatment needed. The app will also allow the owner of their animal(s) to share information regarding their animal(s) through the app so that the attending veterinary practitioner will have sufficient knowledge of the animal(s), herd or flock in question and will allow prudent prescribing practice.
